Saving User Input in a CSV File Using VBScript

When working with data and automated scripts, it often becomes essential to store user inputs in a format that's easy to read and manipulate. One of the most common formats for this purpose is the CSV (Comma-Separated Values) file. If you have a VBScript that currently saves data in a text file and wish to convert it to save in a CSV format instead, you're in the right place! In this guide, we will go over how to modify a VBScript to store user input in a CSV file.

The Problem

You may have a VBScript that collects employee information through input boxes and saves this data into a raw text file. However, you want to change the output format to a CSV file that organizes the information in a more accessible manner. Here’s an example of the script you might start with:

The Solution

To save the employee data in a CSV format, you will need to reformat both the filename and the string format in which you save the data. Here’s how you can make this change effectively:

Step 1: Change the Output Filename

Instead of writing to a text file (e.g. aap.txt), you will modify the script to write to a CSV file (e.g. aap.csv).

Step 2: Format the Output String

For CSV files, it is important to ensure that each piece of data is separated by a comma. The following modifications should be made in your script:
