Are MicroStation Connect "Item Types" able to be manipulated using MVBA?
I have been digging around and do not see any mention of "Items" in the object browser or the help. The word Item appears often but not with regard to MicroStation Items. I also attempted to record some "Item" edits and there was nothing in the recorded macro regarding "Items" and the macro does not do anything to the Items.
Hi guys,
It seems that Item Types seem to have VBA support in MS Update 8 but I am finding most of it doesn't seem to work. The Item Type members are hidden in the Object Browser. Not sure when they added it and still nothing in vba documentation...

Well spotted! Good news is always welcome.

The documentation often takes a while to catch up. Keep in mind that Item Type support in VBA could prove ephemeral, like Picklists that appeared in Update 7 and then vanished in subsequent Updates.

Hi all,
The VBA support for ItemTypes was originally intended to be introduced with CONNECT Edition update 8, but this had to be postponed.The documentation is missing in Update 8 and the new features should not be used yet.Most likely, the ItemType support will be officially released with Update 10, including documentation and examples.
Best regards,Artur
Did this ever make it into U10 and if so where would i find the documentation?

I am not sure about Update 10 (because have not installed), but it's in Update 11, both in MicroStation VBA documentation and in API.
