Beautiful. Did some quick reading at MSDN, and from now on the dictionary
object is my friend.
Thanks for the direct answer re VBS arrays; it makes the dictionary object
seem even more desirable.

Joel....
You need to re-dim the array on the fly to accept more data, or
pre-dimension the array prior to use. In VBS array's are static and can not
be added to on the fly without re-dimensioning them.
Here are three solutions:
* ReDim the Array by one prior to adding data to it.
* Use a Dictionary Object instead
* Check out the Vector COM Object available here:

My recommendation is to screw the Array and use the Dictionary Object.
