TextFrame.IsFirst property

Returns True if this is the first text frame

Syntax:

Property Get IsFirst() As Boolean

Remarks:

The IsFirst property returns True if a paragraph-text frame is the first frame.

Examples:

The following VBA example links frames of paragraph text. It then creates three columns of equal width and spacing.

Sub Test()
  Dim s As Shape
  Dim s1 As Shape
  Dim s2 As Shape
  Dim t As Text
  Dim f As TextFrame
  Dim d As Document
  Set d = CreateDocument
  Set s = d.ActiveLayer.CreateParagraphText(2, 2, 5, 5, String$(1000, "Z"))
  Set s1 = d.ActiveLayer.CreateParagraphText(5, 5, 8, 8)
  Set s2 = d.ActiveLayer.CreateParagraphText(8, 8, 10, 10)
  Set t = s.Text
  ' Link the frames together.
  t.Frame.LinkTo s1
  s1.Text.Frame.LinkTo s2
  ' Iterate through each frame.
  For Each f In t.Frames
    If f.IsFirst Then
      f.SetColumns 3, True, 1, 0.3
      Exit For
    End If
  Next f
End Sub
