Item Property (CDONTS Recipients Collection)

The Item property returns a single Recipient object from the Recipients collection. Read-only.

Syntax

collRecips.Item(index) 
 
index
A long integer ranging from 1 to collRecips.Count, or a string that specifies the name of the object.

The Item property is the default property of a Recipients collection, meaning that collRecips(index) is syntactically equivalent to collRecips.Item(index) in Microsoft?Visual Basic?code.

Data Type

Object (Recipient)

Remarks

The Item property works like an accessor property for small collections.

Although the Item property itself is read-only, the Recipient object it returns can be accessed in the normal manner, and its properties retain their respective read/write or read-only accessibility.

Example

This code fragment shows the Count and Item properties working together:

' list all recipient names in the collection 
strRecips = "" ' initialize string 
Set collRecips = objMessage.Recipients 
Count = collRecips.Count 
For i = 1 To Count Step 1 
    Set objRecip = collRecips.Item(i) ' or collRecips(i) 
    strRecips = strRecips & objRecip.Name & "; " 
Next i 
MsgBox "Message recipients: " & strRecips
