basic VB script in SSIS

    I have written a small vb script in Script Task. The script is as below

    Dim a As Object

    Dim name As String

    Dim b As String

    name = "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\ComputerName\ActiveComputerName\ComputerName"

    a = CreateObject("wscript.shell")

    b = a.RegRead(name)

    MsgBox(b).ToString()

    In this script I am not understanding what exactly "CreateObject("wscript.shell")" is doing..?

    Your help is appreciated.

    Thanks

    how did you write it if you don't know what it does?

    it looks like it is creating an instance of wshell
