Read Custom Properties

[Homer Simpson]

Hi ,

I have an application that I need to loop through all the shapes and read
the text. But some of the users have also put text into custom properties of
the shapes. Is it possible to read these custom properties.

From what I can tell, I have to use CellExists("Prop.<custom propertyname>")
or something like that. Then If it exists, do something like
cell.ResultsStr("") to read the text, but I am still getting nothing. Any
help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

shape.Cells["Prop.your_property"].ResultsStr("")
