RE: DIM and SET

Both the terms are mainly associated with the VB script where Dim defines something and set explains what is that exactly.

for example:

Dim Myresponse

set Myresponse "Create object".

RE: DIM and SET

Dim can be used to store a value in a variable.
For example: Dim a
a 10

Set can be used to store a object or child object from AUT
eg. set a Browser(" ").Page(" ").childobject(obj)
obj is already described through descriptive programming & by using above script we can store child objects in a web page like webbutton webradio button web list link etc.
