Access a Collection
 
 
 

Most collection objects are accessed through the Document object. The Document object contains a property for each of the Collection objects. For example, the following code defines a variable and sets it to the Layers collection of the current drawing:

Dim layerCollection as AcadLayers
Set layerCollection = ThisDrawing.Layers

The Documents collection, MenuBar collection, and MenuGroups collection are accessed through the Application object. The Application object contains a property for each of these collections. For example, the following code defines a variable and sets it to the MenuGroups collection for the application:

Dim MenuGroupsCollection as AcadMenuGroups
Set MenuGroupsCollection = ThisDrawing.Application.MenuGroups
