  Talk is cheap.  Show me the code.

Global variables in your *VB6* code are _not_ automatically available/the 
same in your *JScript* code.

That does not mean anything.

This method call would work, for example, if your *JScript* code contained 
the global variable declaration and initialization

  var UDF = {
    GetInt32: function (x) {
      return x >>> 0;
    }
  };
 
before, but any other method call would still not work.

Not a good idea.  Consider DST.
