7.2.3 Important Note about Syntax with ActiveX Collections

When you work with a collection in an ActiveX component using RDMLX you must use the RDMLX item keyword. For example, the Word VBA statement to activate a document:

Documents("test.doc").activate

 

Becomes in RDMLX:

invoke method(#wordapp.documents.item<'test.doc'>.activate)

 

Note also that instead of:

  • Parenthesis for the item in the collection you use the greater than and less than signs <>.
  • Double-quotes you use single quotes.
