VBScript File Attribute Constants

VBScript File Attribute Constants are only available when your project has an explicit reference to the appropriate type library containing these constant definitions. For VBScript, you must explicitly declare these constants in your code.

Note

The applicability of these constants depends on the underlying operating system. If the OS file system does not support the file attribute requested, an error will be returned.
