Hi All,

I am considering .Net languages like C# or VB for a scripting language which
will run on my libraris (DLLs) which will be written in C#. I hope the user
to add his/her own logic in the scripting language.

Which language is the best for this. I am assuming that the users don't have
Visual Studio 2005, but they can install .Net framework 2.0.

Thanks for your answers in advance.

The framework includes compilers for both C# and VB.

I don't know of any, but either:

a) you can programmatically compile source code using the
CSharpCodeProvider or the equivalent for VB.
b) you can run vbc.exe or csc.exe from the command line
