Mbee Posted November 17, 2020 Posted November 17, 2020 (edited) I should first ask if there actually is a set of scripting dictionary functions built in to the latest release version of AutoIt. There seems to be based on hints, but since I can't find any official documentation of such, it makes sense to ask this basic question first. Which leads directly to my main question: If part of the official release, where can I find the documentation? If it's not official, I can get the documentation from the UDF that's descended from Gary Frost's with more recent enhancements here, Scripting Dictionary modified, correct? ETA: This isn't academic, since I'm getting an error while attempting a $dict.ADD() Thanks. BTW: I have been working with Maps in the Beta release, and they'll be great when the remaining problems are resolved (most recently, I can't seem to get non-zero data values from them, but I could certainly be doing something wrong). The reason I bring this up is just to let readers know that I've tried Maps without success, so I'll be using dictionaries instead. Edited November 18, 2020 by Mbee
water Posted November 18, 2020 Posted November 18, 2020 Dictionary isn't built in AutoIt, it's a part of VBA for Office. Details can be found here.

Moderators Melba23 Posted November 18, 2020 Moderators Posted November 18, 2020 Mbee, I have been using Maps since the early days of their introduction and never had a problem retrieving values. I suggest you post a short reproducer script to show the problem you are having.

See: Please review my usage of scripting dictionaries So I'm very happy indeed to be able to use Maps after all!
