Dim pRepresentationRules As IRepresentationRules
Dim pDiamond As ISimpleMarkerSymbol
Dim pRepresentationRule As IRepresentationRule
Dim pRepRuleInit As IRepresentationRuleInit
Dim lDiamondID As Long
'Create new RepresentationRules for this Representation Class
Set pRepresentationRules = New RepresentationRules
'Create new Simple Marker Symbol (diamond)
Set pDiamond = New SimpleMarkerSymbol
pDiamond.Style = esriSMSDiamond
pDiamond.size = 4
'Create a new RepresentationRule using a SimpleMarkerSymbol object that implements ISymbol interface and add to Collection
Set pRepresentationRule = New RepresentationRule
Set pRepRuleInit = pRepresentationRule
pRepRuleInit.InitWithSymbol pDiamond
'Initializes with standard ArcGIS symbols
lDiamondID = pRepresentationRules.Add(pRepresentationRule)
pRepresentationRules.Name(lDiamondID) = "diamond"
