properties and methods in visual basic scripting

[LordGarfield]

Hi,

Im testing with visual basic and indesign to create some scripts. But it would be realy helpfull that I saw the property's and methods of objects.

For example
in standard VB i can do this
text1. (then i get a list of propertys like widht, height, left or top.)

When I do this when I script for indesign

dim myIndesign as Indesign. (I also get a list of property's and methods like application, document, font etc..)

so far so good.

but if I go for a third parrameter like

Dim myparagraph As InDesign.Paragraph (wich I could select out of the list)
Set myparagraph = mytext.Paragraphs.Item(1)
I did not get the properties and methods list after the
mytext.Paragraphs.
(the mytext is a textframe)

the with
pWidth = mydocument.DocumentPreferences.PageWidth
where mydocument is an indesign document (you would never had guess that )

Can anyone explain me how I can get these lists?

extra info:
I use Indesign 2.0 and visual basic 6
I added the Adobe Indesign 2.0 Type Library in the references of the project.

I hope for an answer and tank you already.

best regards,
Roel.

Hi Roel, your best bet is to post scripting questions in the Adobe user to user forums. There's a forum up there dedicated soley to ID scripting, and you'll find many experienced VB scripters up there who can answer your questions.
