Sure, you definitely can. I thought you mentioned ASP.NET in your previous
post which is why I replied with .NET advice. Sorry if I didn't catch
what
you were asking.
Integer8 is a little clumsy in VBScript, primarily because it doesn't
sup****t 64 bit integers or unsigned 32 bit integers, but there are
numerous
well-do***ented workarounds out there that overcome most of these issues.
Richard's resources would be a good place to start on that.
