http status code

Hi! I'm trying to get the status code of a url. I tried using this code..

<%
  Dim xml, strData, url
  url = "http://www.google.com"

  Set xml = Server.CreateObject("MSXML2.ServerXMLHTTP")
  xml.Open "GET", url, false ' the True specifies an asynchronous request
  Call xml.Send()

  response.write xml.status

%>

But then, I only get a blank screen. When I viewed the source, here's the output:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<HTML><HEAD>
<META http-equiv=Content-Type content="text/html; charset=windows-1252"></HEAD>
<BODY></BODY></HTML>

How come the status isn't displayed? What else should I do?

Thanks!!!
