According to this article:


what is the difference between section 5.2:

Rich (BB code):
With CreateObject("scripting.dictionary")
.Item("first") = "content"
End With

and section 5.4

Rich (BB code):
Set dict_snb = CreateObject("scripting.dictionary")
 dict_snb.Item("first") = Date

I've written code such as:

Rich (BB code):
Dim DIC As Object
    Set DIC = CreateObject("Scripting.Dictionary")


For n = 1 To TableArrayRows
    
        DIC(TableArray(n, 1)) = n
    Next n

but when I try to add named args such as:

Rich (BB code):
Dim DIC As Object
    Set DIC = CreateObject("Scripting.Dictionary")


For n = 1 To TableArrayRows
    
        DIC.Item(Keys:=TableArray(n, 1)) = n
    Next n

it errors.

Can you not have named args with late binding?

Thanks

Excel Facts

Bring active cell back into view
Start at A1 and select to A9999 while writing a formula, you can't see A1 anymore. Press Ctrl+Backspace to bring active cell into view.
The argument is called Key, not Keys.
