Parameters:

The following VBA example creates three different custom property records in the current document and retrieves their values. The values are saved along with the document and made available in the next session, unless you delete them by using the Properties.Delete or Properties.DeleteByIndex method.

Sub Test()
  Const MyMacroName As String = "MyTestMacro"
  With ActiveDocument
    .Properties(MyMacroName, 1) = "My String 1" ' String
    .Properties(MyMacroName, 2) = 1    ' Integer
    .Properties(MyMacroName, 3) = Atn(1) * 4 ' Double
    
    MsgBox .Properties(MyMacroName, 1)
    MsgBox .Properties(MyMacroName, 2)
    MsgBox .Properties(MyMacroName, 3)
  End With
End Sub
