vbscript arrays???

[Oxymoron]

hi all.
could anyone tell me how I would create a very simple array composed of 3 users for example.
they would enter their names in an inputbox, and if they existed within the array of users, they would get a msgbox for example.
I know the basics of an array, i.e. setting the amount of variables, ReDim, etc..but am having trouble on this simple project.
any and all comments greatly appreciated.
thanx!

Dim aryName
Redim aryName(2)
aryName(0) = "Jane"
aryName(1) = "John"
aryName(2) = "Mike"
For I = 0 to Ubound(aryName)
if Lcase(aryName(I)) = Lcase(strWanted) then
msgBox aryName(I)
End if
Next

Hello, Oxymoron.

Dim NameList, Input, i, flg
NameList = Array("John","Smith","Oxymoron&quot
Input = InputBox("Enter your name : -&quot
MsgBox ("You entered : " & Input)
flg = False
For i=0 To UBound(NameList)
If trim(Input) = NameList(i) Then
flg = True
Exit For
End If
Next
If flg Then
MsgBox ("Your name is accepted.&quot
{do_something}
Else
MsgBox ("Your name is not listed.&quot
{do something else}
End If
