How do I delete all the elements in a collection? (Specifically, the
QueryTables collection, but I don't know if that matters).

You'd think this would be trivial, but Excel's VBA help is a horrific
unmitigated disaster.

N ever used QueryTables, but to clear from a collection you would normally
use

For Each ws in Activeworkbook
For Each qyt In ws.QueryTables
qyt.Delete
Next qty
Next ws

qt.Delete
Next

Bob Phillips spoke thus:

For Each ws in Activeworkbook
For Each qyt In ws.QueryTables
qyt.Delete

I see. Now, if Excel's help could have told me that... I know now
that collections have a Count property, but where could I have found
that information, say, on MSDN or the VBA help...?

Next qty
Next ws

Look in the object browser in Excel VBA.
