This article was previously published under Q180487



SUMMARY
In the Help topics for eMbedded Visual Basic (eVB) and Microsoft Windows CE Toolkit for Visual Basic (VBCE), the description for the "For Each ... Next" statement is as follows:

"Repeats a group of statements for each element in an array or collection."

However, this is not true for collections because you cannot declare a collection in either eVB or VBCE.



MORE INFORMATION
Unlike the information presented in the Help documentation, the following code will not work in either eVB or VBCE because the New keyword is not supported: Private Sub Command1_Click Dim col As New Collection Dim vnt col.Add "Item1" col.Add "Item2" col.Add "Item3" col.Add "Item4" For Each vnt In col MsgBox vnt Next End Sub

Additional query words: wince vbce vbce6 evb
