The following Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) example shows how to use the Rules property to get the names of all the validation rules in an existing validation rule set named "Fault Tree Analysis" in the active document. The example then prints those names in the Immediate window.

Public Sub Rules_Example()

    Dim vsoDocument As Visio.Document
    Dim vsoValidationRule As Visio.ValidationRule
    Dim strValidationRuleSetNameU As String
    
    Set vsoDocument = Visio.ActiveDocument
    strValidationRuleSetNameU = "FaultTreeAnalysis"
    
    For Each vsoValidationRule In vsoDocument.Validation.RuleSets(strValidationRuleSetNameU).Rules
       
        Debug.Print vsoValidationRule.NameU
       
    Next

End Sub
