Split function for VB in Office 97

Anyone an idea?
I have some VB code I made in Office (2000 and XP). In this code I used the Split function for a string like "hi there, can, you, help, me?". By splitting it with split and as separator ", " I get my array like
array(0) = "hi there"
array(1) = "can"
array(2) = "you"
array(3) = "help"
array(4) = "me?"

I would like to create a similar VB script for the use in Office 97. Now I just found out that the Split function is not supported there. So I need to create a Split function for this.
Since I am not real good at VB (yet?) I hope you have some suggestions or examples for me.
If anything is not clear, just ask.

Thanks a lot in advance ! And best wishes ! ;-)
