WScript.Echo... VBA Reference?

Is there a reference that can be checked that will allow WScript.echo to work
from VBA?

I'd really like to have the entire VBA/VBE environment work on any VBS code.
And show errors that would occur as if I were running the VBS file
standalone. (but getting WScript.echo to not return a run-time error would
be a start)

If you find an answer to this problem, please forward the answer to
christmas050873@hotmail.com I too am VERY eager to do the same things!

Sincerely,

What do you want to do in VBscript which you can't just implement in VBA ?

I use the VBE from Excel to test pure VBS scripts. (I HATE the
microsoft-script editor that forces you to use HTML sandwiched code). I was
able to get around my initial issue because "msgbox" works in VBscript.

It would however be really nice to be able to flip a switch that would make
the VBE accept only VBS coding. Maybe by setting up a certain reference
would do the trick?
