Vlax, vlr, vla, etc....

Recommended Posts

I've seen a lot lisp code written with the vlax-???? and vla-???? and vl*-* functions, and i have a lot of lisp tutorials and manuals, but i can't find one that has all of these functions described in detail.

Also when you load the excel, word and access functions with visual lisp you have access to a bunch functions i never heard of.

 

Can anyone tell where can i find information about all these functions please?

It's killing me not know how to work with these...

 

Thanks

Hi,

 

The vl*/vla*/vlax*/vlr* functions are all part of Visual LISP (an extension of Vanilla LISP) which uses the ActiveX COM Model.

 

The vla-* functions have equivalent VBA properties and methods, and the arguments and their order all apply. However, the vlax*/vl* function don't have VBA equivalents

 

The vlr* functions are for manipulating reactors in Visual LISP, similar to VBA Events, but their syntax and usage differ.

 

The help on these functions is all contained in the Visual LISP Editor help files, the help for the vla-* functions is written for VBA, but everything still applies to Visual LISP. There is not much you cannot learn from the help files.
