' If a number is too large for a 32-bit signed integer, then call UpdateNumber instead of UpdateInt.
' The large integer is passed to UpdateNumber as a string, but in the JSON it will be an integer.

' For example:
success = json.UpdateNumber("largeNumber","6884556842")

' If the integer is small enough for a 32-bit signed integer, then use UpdateInt:
success = json.UpdateInt("reasonableInt",123456)

json.EmitCompact = 0
Response.Write "<pre>" & Server.HTMLEncode( json.Emit()) & "</pre>"

' The output:
' Notice the large number passed as a string does not have quotes in the JSON

' {
'   "largeNumber": 6884556842,
'   "reasonableInt": 123456
' }
