Examples

In the following example, an AutomationElement that supports the RangeValuePattern control pattern has its value set to the control-specific maximum value.

SetRangeValue(targetControl[0], rangeValuePattern.Current.Maximum);

    SetRangeValue(targetControl(0), rangeValuePattern.Current.Maximum)

End Sub
