property Items.ItemBar(Item as HITEM, Key as Variant, Property as ItemBarPropertyEnum) as Variant
Gets or sets a bar property.

 TypeDescription 
   Item as HITEM A long expression that indicates the the handle of the item where the bar is removed.  
   Key as Variant Optional. A String expression that indicates the key of the bar being accessed. If missing, the Key parameter is empty. If the Item has only a single Bar you may not use the Key parameter, else an unique key ( in the same bars of the item ) should be used.  
   Property as ItemBarPropertyEnum An ItemBarPropertyEnum expression that indicates the property being accessed  
   Variant A Variant expression that indicates the property's value.  
Use the ItemBar property to access properties related to the bars in the item. Use the AddBar property to add new bars to the item. Use the FirstVisibleDate property to specify the first visible date in the chart area. Use the RemoveBar method to remove a bar from an item. Use the ClearBars method to remove all bars in the item. Use the Refresh method to refresh the chart.

The following VB sample changes the end date for the bar in the first visible item ( in this sample we consider that AddBar method was used with the Key parameter as being empty ) :

With Gantt1.Items
    .ItemBar(.FirstVisibleItem, "", exBarEnd) = "6/19/2005"
End With

The following C++ sample changes the end date for the bar in the first visible item:

CItems items = m_gantt.GetItems();
items.SetItemBar( items.GetFirstVisibleItem(), COleVariant(""), 2 /*exBarEnd*/, COleVariant("6/19/2005") );

The following VB.NET sample changes the end date for the bar in the first visible item:

With AxGantt1.Items
    .ItemBar(.FirstVisibleItem, "", EXGANTTLib.ItemBarPropertyEnum.exBarEnd) = "6/19/2005"
End With

The following C# sample changes the end date for the bar in the first visible item:

axGantt1.Items.set_ItemBar(axGantt1.Items.FirstVisibleItem, "", EXGANTTLib.ItemBarPropertyEnum.exBarEnd, "6/19/2005");

The following VFP sample changes the end date for the bar in the first visible item:

with thisform.Gantt1.Items
	.DefaultItem = .FirstVisibleItem
	local sT, vfpCRLF
	vfpCRLF = chr(13)+chr(10)
	sT = "Items" + vfpCRLF
	sT = sT + "{"+ vfpCRLF
	sT = sT + "ItemBar(DefaultItem," + chr(34) + chr(34) + ",2) = " + chr(34) + "20/07/2005" + chr(34) + vfpCRLF
	sT = sT + "}"+ vfpCRLF
	thisform.Gantt1.Template = sT
endwith

The VFP sample uses the Template property in order to execute the ItemBar property. The sample builds the script:

Items
{
ItemBar(DefaultItem,"",2) = "20/07/2005"
}

This way the ItemBar property for the default item is invoked.
