Object Variables

In Scripter, object variables contain references to ActiveX objects. Creating the program Application object is an example of declaring an object variable:

 

Dim VoxlerApp As Object

Set VoxlerApp = CreateObject("Voxler.Application")

 

In this example, a DIM statement declares that the variable named VoxlerApp holds a reference to an object. The built-in CreateObject function returns a reference to a Voxler Application object, and the SET statement assigns this object reference to the VoxlerApp variable. Unlike variables of other types, which can be assigned new values simply with an equal sign ( = ), object variables must be assigned values with a SET statement.
