			ELEMENT: <reference> The <reference> tag can be used to include a reference to an external type library. This is useful for importing constants from the external type library. A reference can be created based on its ProgID or GUID. The object and guid attributes are mutually exclusive. The reference is valid within the job where it was created. Syntax: <reference [object="progID" \| guid="typelibGUID"] [version="version_info"] /> Attribute: object The object attribute can be used to create a reference based on its ProgID. Attribute: guid The guid attribute can be used to create a reference based on its type library GUID. Attribute: version The optional version attribute can be used to indicate which version of the type library to use. It must be in the form <major version>[.<minor version>]. If it is not specified, and cannot be derived from the Registry key for the specified ProgID or GUID, the default value "1.0" is used. The following sample code creates a reference to ADODB.Recordset and displays the value of the constant named adUseClient. Note the use of the + rather than the & for the concatenation, since the & is a special character in XML <?XML version="1.0" ?> <!-- Filename: demo.wsf--> <package> <job> <reference object="ADODB.Recordset"/> <script type="text/vbscript"> WScript.Echo "adUseClient = " + CStr(adUseClient) </script> </job> </package> Output: adUseClient = 3
