Word object model or hierarchy listing

T

Tom Smith

Is there someplace one can go to get the entire object listing for Microsoft
Word (2000 is what I'm using), a table or tree or whatever, that would show
what the various objects, props and methods are and that I could use as a
reference? I'm trying to get my lobes around VBA programming, and find
myself constantly wondering, well, that's an object, but what are the other
objects? Etc.

Any guidance would be gratefully, etc. Thx. Tom

Howdy Tom,

For a graphic showing Word Objects you can open the
VBA editor, hit F1 (help), and type in "Microsoft Word
Objects". This will show you a tree with "Application"
(which would be Word, in this case) at the root and the
many many child objects below. Clicking on any of the
graphics will take you to help for the object that the
graphic represented.

If you're just starting, then this may be a little too
terse. I found the Word 2000 Developer's Handbook (Hart-
Davis) to be very useful. It is likely that Developer's
Handbooks are available for later versions of Word as
well. A more advanced text, but extremely useful, is the
VBA Developer's Handbook (Getz & Gilbert). Both books are
published by Sybex.

the return email address is corrupted to avoid spambots.
It should read "msn" rather than "nsm".

Thanks much. That's a great start, and I'll also look into your text
recommendations. Tom
