VBA Equivalent of VLAX-GET ???

Anonymous · ‎03-06-2004

With vlax-get, you can pass it an object and a string and it will return the property. Is there an equivalent in VBA? In other words if you have a property name in a string variable, how can you extract a variant value from an object like an acadobj, such as "TextString" or "Color"? Thanks in advance! Terry

That's surprising. You have VB Pro/Ent - Why not wrap it in a tiny dll (w/other functionality)? "Terry W. Dotson" wrote in message news:[email protected]... michael puckett wrote: > CallByName ... Much appreciated, but its not available in 2000, which I have to support. Terry

Terry, Did you consider using VLAX class, like in http://code.acadx.com/? Regards, Maksim Sestic "Terry W. Dotson" wrote in message news:[email protected]... > michael puckett wrote: > > > CallByName ... > > Much appreciated, but its not available in 2000, which I have to > support. > > Terry

Easy oh sensitive one: Nothing against your vlax class -> I just find it funny suggesting Terry use your code in one of his commercial apps. I could be wrong, but I just don't see him doing it ...

🙂 Oh, it seems that I made very (very) stupid mistake with that hillarious reply. My excuses to Terry :-) "Frank Oquendo" wrote in message news:404ded3e$1_3@newsprd01... > michael puckett wrote: > > lol yer killin' me. > > What do you find funnt?

It was not a stupid mistake Maksim; I just thought it was funny (I have a strange sense of humour).

I just had no idea what's Terry working on until your reply and my visit to Terry's website. Now my excuses to Frenk, too :-) "michael puckett" wrote in message news:404defd3$1_2@newsprd01... > Easy oh sensitive one: Nothing against your > vlax class -> I just find it funny suggesting > Terry use your code in one of his commercial > apps.

Whatever works reliably :) Re: Limiting dll dependencies, if it's a case of minimizing file distributions you can always bind your dlls in a parent exe using pebundle type utilities. Notwithstanding the compression / security aspects of same. Cheers. "Terry W. Dotson" wrote in message news:[email protected]... michael puckett wrote: > That's surprising.

Sipping tea: I'm relaxed, and just to make clear, I wasn't suggesting Franks code was inferior. Cheers all :) "Terry W.

Hi...

I did a DLL for me. But just is for TEXT Entity.

Example

Option Explicit

Private P As New Get_Property

Private Sub cmdPropiedad_Click()
Dim objsel As AcadText
Dim pnt As Variant
Dim PntInsercion As Variant
Dim sTexto As String
Dim txtColor As Long
utilGet.GetEntity objsel, pnt, vbCr & "Seleccione texto: "
'Dato por defecto TextString
sTexto = P.VB_Get_Property(objsel)
'Punto de Insercion del texto
PntInsercion = P.VB_Get_Property(objsel, "insertionpoint")
'Color del texto
txtColor = P.VB_Get_Property(objsel, "color")
'etc... etc...
End Sub
