This example gets up to 10 of the top alternates for the Strokes, theStrokes, associated with the InkAnalyzer, theInkAnalyzer. It then adds the recognized strings for the alternates to the System.Collections.Specialized.StringCollection, theAlternateStrings.

' Get analysis alternates for the strokes collection and add the 
' recognized strings to a string collection.
theAlternateCollection = Me.theInkAnalyzer.GetAlternates(theStrokes)
theAlternateStrings.Clear()
Dim theAlternate As Microsoft.Ink.AnalysisAlternate
For Each theAlternate In theAlternateCollection
    theAlternateStrings.Add(theAlternate.RecognizedString)
Next theAlternate

// Get analysis alternates for the strokes collection and add the 
// recognized strings to a string collection.
theAlternateCollection = this.theInkAnalyzer.GetAlternates(theStrokes);
theAlternateStrings.Clear();
foreach (Microsoft.Ink.AnalysisAlternate theAlternate
    in theAlternateCollection)
{
    theAlternateStrings.Add(theAlternate.RecognizedString);
}
