Returns a specific member of an Remote Data Objects (RDO) collection object either by position or by key.
Syntax
object.Item(index)
The Item property syntax has these parts:
| Part | Description |
| object | An object expression that evaluates to an object in the Applies To list. |
| index | Required. An expression that specifies the position of a member of the collection. If a numeric expression, index must be a number from 1 to the value of the collection's Count property. If a String expression, index must correspond to the key argument specified when the member referred to was added to the collection. |
Remarks
Basically, the Item property is used to choose a member of the collection either by ordinal number or by a key value.
If the value provided as index doesn’t match any existing member of the collection, an error occurs.
The Item property is the default method for a collection and is rarely used to reference collection members. Therefore, the following lines of code are equivalent:
Print MyCollection(1)
Print MyCollection.Item(1)
