Thread: Documentation?!?!?

  1. #1

    Documentation?!?!?

    I'm looking for a language reference where
    I can find documentation similar to JavaDocs
    (not the crappy MSDN library)

    I need to know the object, what properties it has,
    what events it generates, what other objects it
    contains etc...

    MSDN has everything blown appart and I never
    know what properties an object supports.

    Does anyone know if such an intelligent reference exists?

    I assume you are talking about Office VBA objects. If so, the Object Browser (F2 or View | Object Browser) is a good reference. After locating the object, press F1 for detailed uses, methods, properties, etc.

    MSDN can be challenging to navigate! You can find a straightforward tree of the Office object model at the following locations:

    OffXP

    http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...entid=28000550

    Off2000
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...asp?frame=true

    Cheers,

    wow, i love the search function. I've had this EXACT question for the longest time and I've been too lazy to see it through, until now. I knew about the object browser, but I never thought to Press F1 after finding what I needed to get detailed info!

    Thanks for that info. hehe
