Item Property

Returns a specific member of a collection by name or ordinal number.

Syntax

collection.Item(Index)

The Item property syntax has the following parts.

Return Values

Returns an object reference.

Remarks

Use the Item property to return a specific object in a collection. If the property cannot find an object in the collection corresponding to the Index argument, an error occurs. Also, some collections don't support named objects; for these collections, you must use ordinal number references.

The Item property is the default property for all collections; therefore, the following syntax forms are interchangeable:

collection.Item(Index)
collection(Index)

Note The Item property may not be exposed in all programming environments. If it is not available, you must use the abbreviated syntax above.
