comparing objects to a text string

[intrex]

Hello,

I am very new to vbscript so bare with me here.

I am trying to compare an object to a text string. The object comes from an xml file.

If (objXMLDoc.documentElement.childNodes(1).childNodes(7))="No Detailed Status Available" Then

I know that this doesn't really make sense, I just posted it for an example of what I am tring to acheive.

Also I want to be able to make objects point to a text string. Would I do this using the set function?

set match = "monday"

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
