Biztalk: Delete ReceiveLocation using WMI and VBScript

The default samples that are shipped with the Biztalk SDK do not contain code to delete a ReceiveLocation. Here is something I've written that will delete a ReceiveLocation, specified on the command line.

Please note that:

• this is a very-very basic script (e.g. no checks on primary ReceiveLocation)


• I know nothing about VBScript, so if you want parts of it nominated as a WTF, go ahead, make my day ;)
