QTP: How can I return multiple Values from a Function

I'm trying to write a function which can return multiple values from a Function which is having 2 arguments.

eg:

function sample_function(arg1,arg2)
    ''#Some code.................

    passenger = list1(0)
    name1 = list1(1)
    age1 = list1(2)
    seatNumber = list1(3)
    ''#This is an Incomplete function...    
end function sample_function

Here this function named sample_function has 2 argument named arg1, arg2. When i call this function in my Driver Script like value = sample_function(2,Name_person), this function should return me passenger, name1,age1,seatNumber values.

How can i achieve this?

EDIT (LB): QTP uses VBScript to specify the test routines, so I retagged this to VBScript, VB because the solution is probably within VBScript.

A straightforward solution would be to return an array:

function foo()
 foo=array("Hello","World")
end function

x=foo()

MsgBox x(0)
MsgBox x(1)

If you happen to use the same batch of values more often than once, then it might pay to make it a user defined class:

class User
 public name
 public seat
end class 

function bar()
 dim r 
 set r = new User
 r.name="J.R.User"
 r.seat="10"
 set bar=r
end function

set x=bar()

MsgBox x.name
MsgBox x.seat
