Using the ListFieldURL object

Use ListFields.Item (index), where index is the name or ordinal position of a field of type fpField URL, to return a single ListFieldURL object.

The following example creates a new field of type fpFieldURL and displays the name of the new field and the name of the list into which it was inserted.

Sub CreateURLField()
'Add new URL field
    Dim objApp As FrontPage.Application
    Dim objLstFlds As ListFields
    Dim strName As String

    Set objApp = FrontPage.Application
    Set objLstFlds = objApp.ActiveWeb.Lists.Item(0).Fields
    strName = "Location"
    'Add new Field of type fpFieldURL to list
    objLstFlds.Add Name:=strName, Description:="Displays file locations", _
                   Fieldtype:=fpFieldURL
    MsgBox "A new field named " & strName & " was added to the list " & _
           objApp.ActiveWeb.Lists.Item(0).Name & "."

End Sub
