expression A variable that represents a Pages object.
Return Value
Page
Remarks
All properties of the new object are initialized to zero, so you need to set only the properties that you want to change.
Example
The following macro shows how to add Master objects to the Masters collection and Page objects to the Pages collection. It also shows how to add documents, layers, styles, events, and add-ons to their corresponding collections.
Before running this macro, replace Myfile.vsd with a valid .vsd file and references to path\filename and filename with a valid path and/or file name to an execuatable add-on (EXE) in your Visio project. The add-on should take no arguments.
