Referencing a layer in a set in VB

Brilliant. Thank you, thank you :-)

Now I can even reference a layer in a set, in a set:

SET textItemRef = docRef.LayerSets("Group 1").LayerSets("Group 2").ArtLayers("Layer 1").TextItem

Cool. And at last!

Thank you again, sir.

I believe the syntax would be

SET textItemRef = docRef.LayerSets("mainSet").ArtLayers("topLine").TextItem

Perhaps I've asked this awkwardly? Let me try again, co I know it's a simple answer, but a weekend trawl through the docs and Google has had me pulling my hair out.

This works fine, when the text layer "topLine" is in the top level, that is, not in a layer set:

SET textItemRef = docRef.artLayers("topLine").TextItem
textItemRef.Contents = "blah blah"

But when the text layer is nested in a layer set "mainSet" it cannot be found. I'd like the answer to be something like:

SET textItemRef = docRef.artLayers("mainSet")("topLine").TextItem

But, every combination I've tried fails.

How do I reference a text layer nested in a layer set?

TIA
