Hi,
I need to remove an object from a collection that has been enumerated
with GetEnumerator similar to this...

With lobjs.GetEnumerator
.MoveNext()
if [some_condition] Then
lobjs.remove(.Current)
end if
end with

I realise you can't use the Remove with the GetEnumerator and bombs on
the next MoveNext. is there another way to do this? The API I'm
using requires GetEnumerator (as opposed to For...Each).

Cheers!

The For Each uses an enumerator, so unless the enumerator is crap, there is no problem in using a For Each.

As Stephany suggested, to remove the items you just put them in a new list, and remove them in a separate loop.
