Fields Property (AddressList Object)
Fields Property (AddressList Object)
The Fields property returns a single Field object or a Fields collection object. Read-only.
Syntax
objAddressList.Fields
objAddressList.Fields(index)
objAddressList.Fields(proptag)
objAddressList.Fields(name)
index
Integer. Value must be greater than 0 and less than or equal to 65,535 (&HFFFF). Specifies the index within the Fields collection.
proptag
Long. Value must be greater than or equal to 65,536 (&H10000). Specifies the property tag value for the MAPI property to be retrieved.
name
String. Specifies the name of the custom MAPI property.
Data Type
Object (Field or Fields collection)
Remarks
The Fields property returns one or all of the fields associated with an AddressList object. Each field typically corresponds to a MAPI property. Data types are preserved, except that MAPI counted binary properties are converted to and from character strings representing hexadecimal digits.
The Fields property provides a generic access mechanism that allows Microsoft® Visual Basic® and Microsoft® Visual C++® programmers to retrieve the value of any MAPI property using either a name or a MAPI property tag. For access with the property tag, use objAddressList.Fields(proptag), where proptag is the 32-bit MAPI property tag associated with the property, such as CdoPR_DISPLAY_NAME. To access a named property, use objAddressList.Fields(name), where name is a string that represents the custom property name.
Although the Fields property itself is read-only, the collection it returns can be accessed in the normal manner through its Add and Delete methods, and the properties on its member Field objects retain their respective read/write or read-only accessibility.
The Fields property does not correspond to a MAPI property and cannot be rendered into HTML hypertext by the CDO Rendering Library.
