Item Method Example
This example uses the
Item method to retrieve a reference to an object in a collection. Assuming
Birthdays
is a
Collection object, the following code retrieves from the collection references to the objects representing Bill Smith's birthday and Adam Smith's birthday, using the keys "SmithBill" and "SmithAdam" as the
index arguments
. Note that the first call explicitly specifies the
Item method, but the second does not. Both calls work because the
Item method is the default for a
Collection object. The references, assigned to
SmithBillBD
and
SmithAdamBD
using
Set, can be used to access the properties and methods of the specified objects. To run this code, create the collection and populate it with at least the two referenced members.
Dim SmithBillBD As Object
Dim SmithAdamBD As Object
Dim Birthdays
Set SmithBillBD = Birthdays.Item
("SmithBill")
Set SmithAdamBD = Birthdays("SmithAdam")
