96 Error regarding ByVal & VBScript 5.6
At the bottom of p 96 the text states " ... if you do not specify one or the other explicitly, ByVal is the default." There is a similar statement on p 98.

This is not true. In VBS 5.6, the default for passing arguments is ByRef, as demonstrated by the attached script. It was true, however, for the previous version of VBS.

Or if plural is prefered ie. "exposes", then change the word "to" to "that",

"The example captures the essentials of the technique that exposes properties
