CustomXMLPrefixMappings.AddNamespace method (Office)

Allows you to add a custom namespace/prefix mapping to use when querying an item.

Syntax

expression.AddNamespace(Prefix, NamespaceURI)

expression An expression that returns a CustomXMLPrefixMappings object.

Parameters

Name	Required/Optional	Data type	Description
Prefix	Required	String	Contains the prefix to add to the prefix mapping list.
NamespaceURI	Required	String	Contains the namespace to assign to the newly added prefix.

Remarks

If the prefix already exists in the Namespace Manager, this method will overwrite the meaning of that prefix except when the prefix is one added or used by the data store (IXMLDataStore interface) internally, in which case it will return an error.

Example

The following example adds a prefix and namespace to a CustomPrefixMappings object.

Sub AddNamespacePrefix() 
  
    Dim objCustomPrefixMappings As  CustomPrefixMappings 
    Dim varCustomMapping As Variant 
 
    ' Adds a custom namespace. 
    varCustomMapping = objCustomPrefixMappings.AddNamespace("xs", "urn:invoice:namespace")      
 
End Sub
