Arguments

object
Required. Always the name of a Dictionary object.


key
Required. Key associated with the item being retrieved or added.

The following example illustrates the use of the Item property.

function DicTest(keyword)
{
   var a, d;
   d = new Application.Dictionary();
   d.Add("a", "Athens");
   d.Add("b", "Belgrade");
   d.Add("c", "Cairo");
   a = d.Item(keyword);
   return(a);
}
