That is interesting. In my experience VBScript and KiX 4 COM code is almost interchangeable. I have converted some of my fractal code to VBScript for comparison and all I did was drop the $'s on the vars, change the comment symbol to ' and remove the Break on and other unnecessary KiX commands.

as an aside VBScript supports floating numbers and the fractals look so much nicer

So, are you saying that

Do Until request1.Status = Complete

doesn't work when you use it in KiX:

Do Until $request1.Status = Complete

?
