'  Imagine we have the following JSON:

'  	{ 
'  	  "Meta Data": { 
'  	    "1: Symbol": "MSFT",
'  	    "2: Indicator": "Relative Strength Index (RSI)",
'  	    "3: Last Refreshed": "2017-07-28 09:30:00",
'  	    "4: Interval": "15min",
'  	    "5: Time Period": 10,
'  	    "6: Series Type": "close",
'  	    "7: Time Zone": "US/Eastern Time"
'  	  },
'  	  "Technical Analysis: RSI": { 
'  	    "2017-07-28 09:30": { 
'  	      "RSI": "38.6964"
'  	    },
'  	    "2017-07-27 16:00": { 
'  	      "RSI": "50.0088"
'  	    } 
'  	} 


'  The path to the RSI valud 38.6964 is Technical Analysis: RSI.2017-07-28 09:30.RSI

'  Whenever a path part contains a SPACE or "." char, that part must be enclosed
'  in double quotes.  For example:

Dim json As ChilkatJsonObject
json.Initialize
json.LoadFile("qa_data/json/rsi.json")

Log("RSI: " & json.StringOf(Chr(34) & "Technical Analysis: RSI" & Chr(34) & "." & Chr(34) & "2017-07-28 09:30" & Chr(34) & ".RSI"))

'  output is 38.6964
