What is the maximum size of Scripting.Dictionary?
11,914
From everything I've ever encountered (and can't seem to find any documentation to contradict this), the dictionary has no implicit upper limit and is only limited by the amount of memory you have available.

I am trying to find what is the upper limit of Scripting.Dictionary? Is there one?
It could be either limit on number of elements or size of memory. I could not trace any info on that.

? typename(createobject("scripting.dictionary").count)
