Scripting - basic Item collection

["Adam Seeley" <Adam.Seeley(at)primefocusworld.com>]

Hi,

I'm sure this is simple as simple can be, but I want to know the best way to collect a single Explicit Item in a Scene into an Object using Text.

A collection is fine, I can do it like this:

	set oPartitionColl = CreateObject( "XSI.Collection" )
	oPartitionColl.SetAsText "Passes.Default_Pass.Partitions.*" 
	logmessage oPartitionColl.count

I want to do this to get a single Object rather than a collection a bit like this:
	
	set oPartition = CreateObject( "XSI.Item" )
	oPartition.SetAsText "Passes.Default_Pass.background_objects_partition"

That doesn't work, but is there an equivalent?

I'm in VB still by the way.


Thanks a lot,

Adam.
