Function GetNameList ( _
ByRef NumberNames As Integer, _
ByRef MyName As String() _

Parameters
- NumberNames
- Type:
System Int32
The number of area object names retrieved by the program.
- MyName
- Type: System String
This is a one-dimensional array of area object names. The MyName array is created
as a dynamic, zero-based, array by the API user:
Dim MyName() as String
The array is dimensioned to (NumberNames – 1)
inside the ETABS program, filled with the names, and returned to the API user.
Return Value
Returns zero if the names are successfully retrieved,
otherwise it returns nonzero.
