Display Method

  • Článek

For an **Explorer**or MAPIFolder object, the Display method displays a new Explorer object for the folder.

For specified Microsoft Outlook items, the Display method displays a new Inspector object for the item.

Note  The Display method is supported for explorer and inspector windows for the sake of backward compatibility. To activate an explorer or inspector window, use the Activate method.

expression**.Display(Modal)**

*expression   * Required. An expression that returns one of the objects in the Applies To list.

Modal    This argument is used with all objects in the Applies To list except for the Explorer and MAPIFolder objects. Optional Variant. True to make the window modal. The default value is False.

Remarks

If you attempt to open an "unsafe" file system object (or "freedoc" file) by using the Microsoft Outlook object model, you receive the E_FAIL return code in the C or C++ programming languages. In Outlook 2000 and earlier, you could open an "unsafe" file system object by using the Display method.

Example

This Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) example uses the Display method to display the default Inbox folder. This example will not return an error, even if there are no items in the Inbox, because you are not asking for the display of a specific item.

Sub DisplayInbox()
    Dim myolApp As Outlook.Application
    Dim myNameSpace As Outlook.NameSpace
    Dim myFolder As Outlook.MAPIFolder
    Set myolApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
    Set myNameSpace = myolApp.GetNamespace("MAPI")
    Set myFolder = myNameSpace.GetDefaultFolder(olFolderInbox)
    myFolder.Display
End Sub

If you use Microsoft Visual Basic Scripting Edition (VBScript) in an Outlook form, you do not create the Application object, and you cannot use named constants. This example shows how to perform the same task using VBScript code.

Set myNameSpace = Application.GetNameSpace("MAPI")
Set myFolder = myNameSpace.GetDefaultFolder(6)
myFolder.Display

This Visual Basic for Applications example displays the first item in the Inbox folder. This example will return an error if the Inbox is empty, because you are trying to display a specific item. If there are no items in the folder, a message box will be displayed to inform the user.

Note  In Office Outlook   2003, the items in the Items collection object are not guaranteed to be in any particular order.

Sub DisplayFirstItem()
    Dim myolApp As Outlook.Application
    Dim myNameSpace As Outlook.NameSpace
    Dim myFolder As Outlook.MAPIFolder
    Set myolApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
    Set myNameSpace = myolApp.GetNamespace("MAPI")
    Set myFolder = myNameSpace.GetDefaultFolder(olFolderInbox)
    On Error GoTo ErrorHandler
    myFolder.Items(1).Display
    Exit Sub
    ErrorHandler:
    MsgBox "There are no items to display."
End Sub
