Dim fso, outFile
Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")

Set outFile = fso.CreateTextFile("output.txt", True, True)

set json = CreateObject("Chilkat.JsonObject")

jsonStr = "{""name"": ""donut"",""image"":{""fname"": ""donut.jpg"",""w"": 200,""h"": 200},""thumbnail"":{""fname"": ""donutThumb.jpg"",""w"": 32,""h"": 32}}"

success = json.Load(jsonStr)
If (success <> 1) Then
    outFile.WriteLine(json.LastErrorText)

' To pretty-print, set the EmitCompact property equal to 0
json.EmitCompact = 0

' If bare-LF line endings are desired, turn off EmitCrLf
' Otherwise CRLF line endings are emitted.
json.EmitCrLf = 0

' Emit the formatted JSON:
outFile.WriteLine(json.Emit())

outFile.Close
