' ------------------------------------------------------------------------
' The SynchronousRequest method is deprecated:

' responseObj is a Chilkat.HttpResponse
Set responseObj = http.SynchronousRequest(domain,port,tls,req)
If (http.LastMethodSuccess = 0) Then
    outFile.WriteLine(http.LastErrorText)
    WScript.Quit
End If

' ...
' ...

' ------------------------------------------------------------------------
' Do the equivalent using HttpSReq.
' Your application creates a new, empty HttpResponse object which is passed 
' in the last argument and filled upon success.

' For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use CreateObject("Chilkat_9_5_0.HttpResponse")
set responseOut = CreateObject("Chilkat.HttpResponse")
success = http.HttpSReq(domain,port,tls,req,responseOut)
If (success = 0) Then
    outFile.WriteLine(http.LastErrorText)
    WScript.Quit
End If
