Version added

4.0

Syntax

strRet = object.Target
object.Target = stringExpression

strRet

String. The current target.

object

Required. An expression that returns an Event object.

stringExpression

Required String. The target to set.

Remarks

An event consists of an event-action pair. When the event occurs, the action is performed. An event also specifies the target of the action and arguments to send to the target.

If the action code of the event is visActCodeRunAddon, the Target property contains the name of the add-on to run.

If the action code of the event is visActCodeAdvise, the Target property is not available. Attempting to get or set the Target property for such an event causes an exception.
