Properties and Methods

Items Sets or gets one or more items of a List. The items can be of any type. When trying to get an item of an invalid index, an error is returned.

<ListName>.Items[(<ItemIndex>)]

- or -

<ListName>[(<ItemIndex>)]

ItemIndex - index of the item to select. Default: -1. When is set to -1: selects all items from the List.

​ <ListName>.Items Example [VBA]

' version 1.12 - 1.17
​
Dim myList As New List
myList.Items = Array("item1", "item2") 'Sets the items to be equal to an array
​
Debug.Print myList.Items(0) 'Prints the first item of the List, in this case "item1"
Debug.Print myList(1) 'Prints the second item of the list, in this case "item2"
​
' version 1.20
​
Dim myList As New List
myList.Items = Array("item1", "item2") 'Sets the items to be equal to an array
​
' myList.Items --> returns an array, so you can use ..Items(<index>) to return an item from the list/array.
Debug.Print myList.Items(0) 'Prints the first item of the returned array, in this case "item1"
