単一化された固定配列(Dim a(i、j))には、i*j個の空の要素が含まれます。あなたの
if not dic.Exists(MyDataset(0, i)) then dic.Add MyDataset(0, i), ""
最初の空のアイテムをピックアップしてカウントします。コードで示されています:
Dim afCart(3, 4)
Dim dicPID : Set dicPID = countPID00(afCart)
Dim aKeys : aKeys = dicPID.Keys
Dim vKey : vKey = aKeys(0)
WScript.Echo "A", dicPID.Count, TypeName(vKey)

afCart(0, 3) = 4711
' afCart(0, 4) = "not initialized/Empty"
Set dicPID = countPID(afCart)
WScript.Echo "C"
For Each vKey In dicPID.Keys
WScript.Echo "", vKey, "=", dicPID(vKey)
Next
