BuildingBlockTypes Collection

Word Developer Reference

Represents a collection of BuildingBlockType objects.

Version Information
 Version Added:  Word 2007

Remarks

Building block types are represented by WdBuildingBlockTypes constants. Use the Item method to access a specific type in the BuildingBlockTypes collection.

To loop through the different building block types, use a For loop with the Count property. The following example loops through the building block types and prints the name in the Immediate Window. (This example assumes that the Immediate Window is visible.)

Visual Basic for Applications
Dim objTemplate As Template Dim intCount As Integer Dim objBBT As BuildingBlockType Set objTemplate = Templates(1) For intCount = 1 To objTemplate.BuildingBlockTypes.Count Set objBBT = objTemplate.BuildingBlockTypes(intCount) Debug.Print objBBT.Name Next
