22.4.2.33 vector

This element defines the vector variant type. Vector contents shall be of uniform type as specified by the baseType attribute. The contents of a vector are defined using repeated child elements of the appropriate variant type.

[Example: A vector of lpstr variant types:

<vt:vector baseType="lpstr">
  <vt:lpstr>One</vt:lpstr>
  <vt:lpstr>Two</vt:lpstr>
  <vt:lpstr>Three</vt:lpstr>
</vt:vector>

end example]
