Adding Follow Up field to Field Chooser Programatically.
 

Hello,
I would like to make a firm wide change for our Outlook 2000 users. I
would like to add the follow up field to the email area using VBS (or
whatever will work). It's such a general request, I'm having a hard
time finding information on how to do this programatically. Can anyone
help?

Thanks!

I'm confused. Do you want to add the follow-up field to the view or to the Field Chooser? For mail or for contacts?

Hello Sue,
Thanks for your response. The follow-up field is already in the Field
Chooser (which I interpret as the lil GUI used to drag and drop fields
to the mail view). It is for Mail -- specifically the Inbox.

Then I'm really confused by your topic "Adding Follow Up Field to Field Chooser Programmatically." Do you mean you want to add that field to a view programmatically? In Outlook 2002 and 2003, you can control the fields dipslayed in a view by working with the View.XML property. MSDN has articles at http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en...ustomViews.asp and http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en...XMLViewDef.asp See http://www.outlookcode.com/threads.a...4&messageid=19 for additional sample code.
