Our network provider wants to phase out the script language Visual Basic Script (VBS). Does this affect the DNN platform version 9.11.00? Thanks!

No. DNN and most extensions are written in C#, and some extensions are written in VB, but not in VBS.

But: I can (hardly, but I can) imagine that there are some very advanced extensions that allow customizations using VBS, even if I am not aware of any. Therefore you should ask the vendors of the stuff you use to be sure.

Happy DNNing!
Michael

Yeah, it would be unusual to find VBS in any website these days.  You should update that to use C# ASAP if you find any.  Also, if you don't know what it is, you should immediately stop everything, and follow the instructions on the official DNN security policy.
