STATEMENT:  Set

Set
 
The Set statement assigns the object reference to a variable or property. (i.e., create an instance of a specific object)
 
The keyword New is used in conjunction with Set to create an instance of a Class or RegExp.
 
The keyword Nothing is used to unassign the object reference from the variable or property.
 
Code:
<%
Dim Anyvariable
Set Anyvariable = Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
%>
 
<%
Dim SearchPattern
Set SearchPattern = New RegExp
%>

 
<%
Set Anyvariable = Nothing
Set SearchPattern = Nothing
%>
