Not quite - there's a crucial difference.

Using an array for name/value pairs, you can pass in an array as an actual parameter.

You can't do that with strings for the name/value pairs.

   put gAData into tA["row"]
   put 100 into tA["size"]
   DoSomething 12, 4, tA

but you can't do
   DoSomething 12, 4, "size=100", "row=" & gAData
because the array gAData can't be automatically converted to/from a string to pass it.
