Event DISPID

DISPID_MUAE_ONUSERPHONECHANGE

The DISPID for this event is defined in msgrua.h. Use this value to identify the event handler when implementing IDispatch::Invoke.

Remarks

Due to user input, the bstrNumber string might or might not contain punctuation. In general, punctuation is useful for display in the user interface (UI), but not for handling by APIs that handle telephony. Clients can strip or parse punctuation. However, punctuation cannot be added if none has been preserved because there are many possible punctuation conventions in various locales.

To be used when writing custom ::Invoke methods to handle these events.

Parameter vaArgs[x] Variant Type
bstrNumber 0 VT_BSTR
