Add Method

           

Adds a member to a Collection object.

Syntax

object.Add item, key, before, after

The Add method syntax has the following object qualifier and named arguments:

Part	Description
object	Required. An object expression that evaluates to an object in the Applies To list.
item	Required. An expression of any type that specifies the member to add to the collection.
key	Optional. A unique string expression that specifies a key string that can be used, instead of a positional index, to access a member of the collection.
before	Optional. An expression that specifies a relative position in the collection. The member to be added is placed in the collection before the member identified by the before argument. If a numeric expression, before must be a number from 1 to the value of the collection's Count property. If a string expression, before must correspond to the key specified when the member being referred to was added to the collection. You can specify a before position or an after position, but not both.
after	Optional. An expression that specifies a relative position in the collection. The member to be added is placed in the collection after the member identified by the after argument. If numeric, after must be a number from 1 to the value of the collection's Count property. If a string, after must correspond to the key specified when the member referred to was added to the collection. You can specify a before position or an after position, but not both.

Remarks

Whether the before or after argument is a string expression or numeric expression, it must refer to an existing member of the collection, or an error occurs.

An error also occurs if a specified key duplicates the key for an existing member of the collection.
