The default name for new objects is the type of object plus a unique integer. For example, the first new Form object is Form1, and the third text box you create on a Form is Text3.
Note: |
---|
If the object is the first object in the object hierarchy (that is, the outermost container object), use the object variable to reference the object instead of the Name property. |
For a Project object, the Name property contains the name and path to the project, and is read-only at design time and run time.
For a File object, the Name property contains the name and path to the file, and is read-only at design time and run time.
