  4. Dictionary ObjectDenotations • A Dictionary object is the equivalent of a PERL associative array. • Items can be any form of data, and are stored in the array. • Each item is associated with a unique key. • The key is used to retrieve an individual item and is usually a integer or a string, but can be anything except an array.

  5. Dictionary ObjectCount Property • Returns the number of items in a collection or Dictionary object. • Read only. • Syntax • objDictionary.Count • The object is always the name of one of the items in the Applies To list.

  6. Dictionary ObjectItem Property • Sets or returns an item for a specified key in a Dictionary object. • For collections, returns an item based on the specified key. • Syntax • object.Item(key)[ = newitem] • If key is not found when changing an item, a new key is created with the specified newitem. • If key is not found when attempting to return an existing item, a new key is created and its corresponding item is left empty.

  7. Dictionary ObjectKey Property • Sets a key in a Dictionary object. • The newkey is a new value that replaces the specified key. • Syntax object.Key(key) = newkey • If key is not found when changing a key, a new key is created and its associated item is left empty.
