About ActiveX object names
As shown in previous illustration, ActiveX objects have a default name. The name is
used:
 To identify the object when logging its events.
For information about ActiveX events, see “Connecting tags to an ActiveX object’s
events” on page 18-26.
 With commands.
For example, when using the Invoke command to call a method, you must specify the
name of the object in which the method is implemented. For more information, see
“Connecting tags to an object’s methods” on page 18-26.
You can change the default name for any object. For more information about object
naming, see page 16-23.
Viewing an object’s methods
The Object Methods dialog box shows the methods implemented for the selected object.
To view the object’s methods, right-click the object, and then select Methods.
For details about options in the Object Methods dialog box, click Help.
For more information
about the object and
its methods, click this
button.
