Goody.  So, after having made a few guesses to what the name of that help 
file might be  I've found and opened it.   Alas, all it shows me is "Type 
the word(s) you want to find", which is as usefull as using Google.

The point is that *I have no idea* what other byte-oriented functions and/or 
properties there are, which is why I asked for a list of them.

Bottom line : help files are good if you already know the name of the 
function/property and need to verify its specifics, but not the other way 
around. :-(

Secondary problem : when I entered several different words (byte, stream, 
string) into that "help topics" dialog nothing appears (and "Find Now" stays 
grayed out).  No result, no errors, nothing.

P.s.
"Windows Scripting Host Help" mentions that "You can also start WSH by 
clicking on the Start menu, clicking Run, typing WScript.exe, and then 
pressing ENTER".  Though from that I only get a "Windows Script Host 
Settings" dialog, where all I can do is setting the timeout and disable the 
commandline logo displaying.  Not usefull to my problem in any way.
