object for an a given document.
expression.ScratchArea
expression Required. An expression that returns one of the objects in the Applies To list.
Remarks
The ScratchArea object is a collection of objects on the scratch page. The ScratchArea object is not in the Pages collection because it is fundamentally not a page; its only similarity to a page is that it can contain objects.
Example
This example sets the variable object as the first shape on the scratch area of the active document.
Sub ScratchPad()
Dim saPage As ScratchArea
Dim objFirst As Object
saPage = Application.ActiveDocument.ScratchArea
objFirst = saPage.Shapes(1)
End Sub
