SBM AppScript Conversion Functions

Description

These functions were added solely for the purpose of converting SBM AppScript and generally should not be used otherwise. See also SBM AppScript Conversion Constants.

Because SBM AppScript was modeled after VBScript, the functions below model VBScript unless comments below indicate otherwise.

Operators

• Variant vbEQV( arg1 , arg2 )
