ItemType

This is one of the following items in the eItemType enumeration:

Object = 0

Group = 1

SelectedObjects = 2

If this item is Object, the assignment is made to the frame object specified by the Name item.

If this item is Group, the assignment is made to all frame objects in the group specified by the Name item.

If this item is SelectedObjects, assignment is made to all selected frame objects and the Name item is ignored.

Remarks

This function sets the value of a steel design overwrite item.

The function returns zero if the item is successfully set, otherwise it returns a nonzero value.
