I thought "GoTo" was created for people who cannot think logically, so they
would have a way out of the mess they got themselves into.

I am sure there must be some way to use the functionality of a hash table.

A lot of it is my familiarity. I hate learning a new language when it
is actually less functional than one that I already know. Especially
when it uses funky syntax like VB. There are a whole huge family of
languages that use C syntax and it's great. I'm not sure why I want to
type 'End If' when I can type '}'.

I don't necessarily think that C is appropriate for a scripting
language for Office, but Perl would be brilliant.

The built in hash capability would be awesome to use in Excel.
