No, they are not the same.
vb.net is a jit-compiled strongly typed object oriented language that runs on the .net framework; vbscript is interpreted. Syntax is different in many subtle ways, mostly relating to scoping and the keywords necessary for vb.net to support true object oriented concepts that vbscript just doesn’t have.
