Hi Ken,

Also found this. I made a new view. Am I able to just apply this new view
via VBA?

Thanks,

Brad

I do this sort of thing all the time in my addins. I usually grab the XML in
the VBA Immediate window and put it in Notepad for easy editing. I then
modify the view as desired and use the modified XML file as my base for
setting up whatever custom view I want.

For sorting this is the sort of XML you need:

orderby
order
headingReceived/heading
propurn:schemas:httpmail:datereceived/prop
typedatetime/type
sortdesc/sort
/order
/orderby

You can have up to 3 sort fields within that orderby tag. Properties are
identified using DASL property tags, so you need to pick those up for your
view properties. You can also set grouping using tags for that.

I haven't played with it myself. However, this prints the current view
definition into the debug window:

Debug.Print Application.ActiveExplorer.CurrentFolder.CurrentVi ew.Xml

I'd play with the folder view, print CurrentView.Xml, and see what
changes.
If you have found how to define the settings you're looking for, you can
edit the xml property. See also the Apply, and the Save method of the View
object.
