Syntax
Set variable = object.Interface(index)
The Interface collection syntax has the following parts.
| Part | Description |
|---|---|
| variable | A variable declared as an InterfaceDef object. It receives the specified interface definition. |
| object | An object expression that evaluates to a MethodDef object. |
| index | An integer index that identifies which element in the collection is to be addressed. The valid range is from one to the total number of elements in the collection. The number of elements in the collection is specified by object.Interface.Count. For more information, see Selecting Items in a Collection. |
