Represents an individual category of a building block type.

Version Information
 Version Added:  Word 2007

Remarks

Microsoft Office Word uses types and categories to organize building blocks. Each building block type is represented by a WdBuildingBlockTypes constant. Each category is a unique string that a user defines. Word comes with two categories already defined: "General" and "Custom"; you can create additional categories as you need.

Use the Type property to access the building block type associated with a specific category. Use the BuildingBlocks property to access the collection of building blocks for a category. The following example prints the type and category names of all the building blocks in the first template to the Immediate Window. (This example assumes that the Immediate Window is visible.)

Visual Basic for Applications 
  Dim objTemplate As Template
Dim objBBT As BuildingBlockType
Dim objCat As Category
Dim intCount As Integer
Dim intCountCat As Integer

Set objTemplate = Templates(1)


For intCount = 1 To objTemplate.BuildingBlockTypes.Count
Set objBBT = objTemplate.BuildingBlockTypes(intCount)
If objBBT.Categories.Count > 0 Then
Debug.Print objBBT.Name
For intCountCat = 1 To objBBT.Categories.Count
Set objCat = objBBT.Categories(intCountCat)
Debug.Print vbTab & objCat.Name
Next
End If
Next

Use the Item method of the Categories collection to access an exising category; to create a new category, use the Add method of the BuildingBlockEntries collection. Set the value of the Category parameter.
