RepositoryObject Type Property

This property specifies the type of the repository object. More specifically, it is the object identifier of the class definition object that defines the repository object. This property is read-only. To copy this property to another variable, use a variable declared as a Variant.

Syntax

object.Type

The Type property syntax has the following part.

Part Description
object An object expression that evaluates to a RepositoryObject
Remarks

The Type property is the object identifier of the class to which the new object conforms. For example, to manipulate an object instance of a Storage class, specify the object identifier of the Storage class definition object upon which the object instance is based.

For example, if you define three object instances of the Storage class (testStorage1, testStorage2, and finalStorage1), all three object instances will have the same Type property value.
