Item Method - ADO
Returns a specific member of a collection by name or ordinal number.
Applies To
Errors, Fields, Parameters, Properties
Syntax
Set object = collection.Item ( Index )
Return Values
Returns an object reference.
Parameters
Index A Variant that evaluates either to the name or to the ordinal number of an object in a collection.
Remarks
Use the Item method to return a specific object in a collection. If the method cannot find an object in the collection corresponding to the Index argument, an error occurs. Also, some collections don't support named objects; for these collections, you must use ordinal number references.
The Item method is the default method for all collections; therefore, the following syntax forms are interchangeable:
collection.Item (Index)
collection (Index)
