Is it possible to have a dictionary of object/classes in vbscript?
For example:
Class employeeclass
Public first, last, salary
End Class
Dim employeedict: Set employeedict = CreateObject("Scripting.Dictionary")
'Loop would be here
Dim employee: Set employee = new employeeclass
With employee
.first = "John"
.last = "Doe"
.salary = 50000
End With
employeedict.Add "1", employee
EDIT The above does work.

Yes, its possible to use a dictionary of objects/classes in VBScript. The following is an example for those interested:
Class employeeclass
Public first, last, salary
End Class
Dim employeedict: Set employeedict = CreateObject("Scripting.Dictionary")
Dim employee: Set employee = new employeeclass
With employee
.first = "John"
.last = "Doe"
.salary = 50000
End With
employeedict.Add "1", employee
Set employee = new employeeclass
With employee
.first = "Mary"
.last = "Jane"
.salary = 50000
End With
employeedict.Add "3", employee
Dim employeedetails: Set employeedetails = employeedict.Item("1")
WScript.StdOut.WriteLine("Name:" & employeedetails.first & " " & employeedetails.last & " $" & employeedetails.salary )
WScript.StdOut.WriteLine(employeedict.Item("3").first & " " & employeedict.Item("3").last & " makes $" & employeedict.Item("3").salary)
Prints out:
Name:John Doe $50000
Mary Jane makes $50000
