Scripting.Dictionary Question

DXNRY(CStr(Range("F" & z))) = 1

Let's assume the value of CStr(Range("F" & z)) = "x"

The line is setting Item property of dictionary for "x" to 1
In other words, it is equivalent to

DXNRY.Add CStr(Range("F" & z).Value), 1

It is not an Index, so 1 could be anything.

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!! You confirmed it. Been staring at this forever. Such a relief
