I introduced COM Connector (CCo)
here.
Here now an example how to use background RFC calls with VBScript via CCo. The queued RFC calls are commented. You can find more information about the different RFC variants here. I presented the possibility to use transactional (tRFC) and queued (qRFC) RFC calls here.

Background RFCs are the recommended kind of RFCs.You should never use a synchronous RFC to write data into an SAP system, only to read data. To write data use tRFC or qRFC, or better the bgRFC. Now you have the easy possibility to use any kind of RFC with your favorite scripting language.
Enjoy it.
