Public Function Find (Name As String, Optional Custom As Object) As UserProperty

Parameters

Custom
Object

True if custom properties on the item should be searched, False if built-in properties should be searched.

Returns

If you use UserProperties.Find to look for a custom property and the call succeeds, it will return a UserProperty object. If it fails, it will return Nothing (a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) in C#). If you use UserProperties.Find to look for a built-in property, specify False for the Custom parameter. If the call succeeds, it will return the property as a UserProperty object. If the call fails, it will return Nothing (a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) in C#). If you specify True for Custom, the call will not find the built-in property and will return Nothing (a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) in C#).

Remarks

If Custom parameter is True, only custom user properties will be searched. The default value is True. To find a non custom property such as Subject, specify Custom parameter as False, otherwise will return Nothing.
