Sets a key in a Dictionary object.
object.Key(key) = newkey
The Key property has the following parts:
Part | Description |
---|---|
object | Required. Always the name of a Dictionary object. |
key | Required. Key value being changed. |
newkey | Required. New value that replaces the specified key. |
If key is not found when changing a key, a new key is created and its associated item is left empty.
The following example illustrates the use of the Key property:
var d;
d = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.Dictionary");
function AddStuff()
{
var a;
d.Add("a", "Athens");
d.Add("b", "Belgrade");
d.Add("c", "Cairo");
}
function ChangeKey(oldkey, newkey)
{
var s;
d.Key("c") = "Ca";
s = "Key " + oldkey + " changed to " + newkey;
return(s);
}
