I am trying to track multiple folders for any changes in files. Can it be done through VBscript? Is there a component which i can use to help me do this?
 
Go to FindFirstChangeNotification API in the MSDN and see from there.....

If they can't be used in script (no experience with script), you'll have to write a COM wrapper around them.

Greetings,

I have looked into a couple of programs like DirAlert, FolderWatch these Components have their preset action which are not much useful for me and they allow me to watch single folder only.
I have also looked into some API's like FindFirstChangeNotification and ReadDirectoryChangesW but API's are tough for me as have never programmed with them before moreover they let me watch single folders only.
