My understanding of a dictionary is that they key is mandatory but its items are not.

So why does this work:

Code:
  Dim DIC As Object
  Set DIC = CreateObject("Scripting.Dictionary")
        
  DIC.Add "MyKey", "MyItem"

but not this:

Code:
    Dim DIC As Object
    Set DIC = CreateObject("Scripting.Dictionary")
        
    DIC.Add "MyKey"

Thanks

What is the shortcut key for Format Selection?
Ctrl+1 (the number one) will open the Format dialog for whatever is selected.
Both are required but the item can be Null, an empty string etc.
