iterate the variables in macro

Hi guys,

Is there any way to iterate the variables in macro?

Just to be clear, I am not asking how to write a loop in VBScript.

Right now i have a code like this

Set vStore1 = ActiveDocument.Variables("vStore1")

Set vStore2 = ActiveDocument.Variables("vStore2")

Set vStore3 = ActiveDocument.Variables("vStore3")

Set vStore4 = ActiveDocument.Variables("vStore4")

Set vStore5 = ActiveDocument.Variables("vStore5")

and what i want is

for each var in ActiveDocument.Variables

// do something with var

I know ActiveDocument.Variables can not be used this way. it is just to show the solution i want.

Regards,

Jean

It's not quite clear for what do you want to do. But this snippet from the APIGuide.qvw should be helpful for you:

rem ** Show name of all variables in document **

set vars = ActiveDocument.GetVariableDescriptions

for i = 0 to vars.Count - 1

set v = vars.Item(i)

msgbox(v.Name)
