Hi,
is there any way to retrieve the User Defined fields of a folder using Automation? When I access the fields configuration of a folder I can see some User defined fields, but I could not found an option to get them using automation. I just only found how to retrieve user defined fields of an Item. Is there any way to do that? Regards, LucasC |

Not with the OOM, no, unless you're using Outlook 2007. In that case you can
access hidden items in a folder. If you use a MAPI API such as Extended MAPI or Redemption you can see the folder as a hidden item in the folder with the MessageClass of "IPC.MS.REN.USERFIELDS". The actual user properties are in a binary property with the property tag of PR_USERFIELDS (0x36E30102). However, that format is undocumented and contains not only the property names but also other information that I have no idea about. It's a hack really. -- Ken Slovak [MVP - Outlook] http://www.slovaktech.com Author: Professional Programming Outlook 2007 Reminder Manager, Extended Reminders, Attachment Options http://www.slovaktech.com/products.htm "Lucas Campos" wrote in message ...
