Returns a reference to an OLE object. The [ObjectCurrent](https://docs.textcontrol.com/tx-text-control-activex/reference/txtextcontrol/objectcurrent-property/llms-full.txt) property determines the object.

### Syntax

```vbscript
TXTextControl.ObjectItem
```

### Data Types

Object.

### Examples

The following Basic example inserts a Text Control into another Text Control at the current input position and sets the font bold attribute for the inserted Text Control. The [ObjectInsertAsChar](https://docs.textcontrol.com/tx-text-control-activex/reference/txtextcontrol/objectinsertaschar-method/llms-full.txt) method implicitly sets the [ObjectCurrent](https://docs.textcontrol.com/tx-text-control-activex/reference/txtextcontrol/objectcurrent-property/llms-full.txt) property to the just inserted object.

```vbscript
TXTextControl1.ObjectInsertAsChar 2, "TIS.TX.TextControl.34", -1, 100, 100, 0, 0
TXTextControl1.ObjectItem.FontBold = True
```

### Limitations

Read only, run time only.
