Parameters
- Index
Type: System.Object
The individual shapes that are to be included in the range. Can be a 32-bit signed integer that specifies the index number of the shape, a string that specifies the name of the shape, or an array that contains either integers or strings. If this argument is omitted, the Range method returns all the objects in the specified collection.
Return Value
Type: Microsoft.Office.Interop.PowerPoint.ShapeRange
Remarks
Although you can use the Range method to return any number of shapes or slides, it is simpler to use the Item[Object] method if you only want to return a single member of the collection. For example, Shapes(1) is simpler than Shapes.Range(1), and Slides(2) is simpler than Slides.Range(2).
