Script Events
The Create Virtual Directory object has an extra script event, named NewVirtualDirectory, which is called once the new virtual directory has been set up. It allows you to set properties which may not be available in the action, or perform more complicated operations on the new directory.
The NewIISWebDir parameter is an ADSI container object is of type IIsWebVirtualDir (see the MSDN Documentation for details.) You will need to use the .Get() and .Put() methods to retrieve and set properties on the object. See the MSDN documentation for a full list of property names.
It is not necessary to call the .SetInfo() method to save any changes, this is called for you when the event exits.
