How to get the handle of all the selected objects?

[Anonymous]

I have a requirement where I want to get the handle of all selected objects (in the drawing) in a function. (The selection is done manually.)

It would be really helpful for me if somebody can suggest some methods.

Thanking you in anticipation

Here's one way (assuming the selection set is referenced by the variable
ss):

Dim hndArray(0 To ss.Count - 1) As String

For i = 0 To ss.Count -1
hndArray(i) = ss.Item(i).Handle
Next

Thank you Frank for your prompt reply. But the problem is that there are no elements in the selection set collection object. I got the selection set object by ThisDrawing.selectionSets and this collection does not contain any object handles. Do you have any other suggestions to get the handles of all objects which are selected manually.

Thanking you in anticipation.

I assumed you meant the user selected objects after you created the
selection set. Is that not the case? If you're trying to get the handles for
items that are gripped, you can access them with
ThisDrawing.ActiveSelectionSet
