VBS Json

[NewVBS]

Hi,
sorry if this post is in the wrong area.
It is for use with in a program called Geo SCADA.

I have the code below;
''''''''''''''''''''
'HTTP JSON Post
''''''''''''''''''''
Sub HTTPJSONPost()
Dim o
Dim Jsonstring
Set o = CreateObject("MSXML2.XMLHTTP")
o.open "GET", "

https://dry-cliffs-19849.herokuapp.com/users/4.json",

False
o.send
Mimic.Layers("WRRead").Item("T_8").Text = o.responseText
End Sub

This works in that it brings back the below;
{"id":4,"name":"Lemmy","email":"lemmy@email.com","nationality":"British"}

My question is how do I go about doing this in VBS, is it possible?
Hope someone can answer, I have been chasing for weeks.
Thanks,

Hi, I am trying to use the below from the net.
I had to comment out the class, as it would appear the program I am working does not recognise class's.
The code runs to StringChunk - then an error message says "object required" "StringChunk";

Private Function ParseString(ByRef str, ByRef idx)
Dim chunks, content, terminator, ms, esc, char
Dim StringChunk
Set chunks = CreateObject("Scripting.Dictionary")

Do
Set ms = StringChunk.Execute(Mid(str, idx))

-------------------------------------------------------------

Function ParseJson(strJson)

Set html = CreateObject("htmlfile")

Set window = html.parentWindow

window.execScript "var json = " & strJson, "JScript"

Set ParseJson = window.json

End Function
