SharedWorkspaceLinks.ItemCountExceeded property (Office)

Gets a Boolean value that indicates whether the number of SharedWorkspaceLinks items in the collection has exceeded the 99 that can be displayed in the Shared Workspace task pane. Read-only.

Note

Beginning with Microsoft Office 2010, this object or member has been deprecated and should not be used.

Syntax

expression.ItemCountExceeded

expression A variable that represents a SharedWorkspaceLinks object.

Return value

Boolean

Remarks

The Shared Workspace task pane can only display 99 shared workspace files and folders, links, members, or tasks. If more than 99 items are added to any of these collections, the corresponding tab of the Shared Workspace task pane stops displaying the list of items, and displays a link to the shared workspace site webpage instead; the collection is no longer populated locally and its Count property returns 0 (zero).

Furthermore, after the ItemCountExceeded property returns True for one of the collections listed earlier, the developer can no longer remedy the situation programmatically by deleting items from the collection to reduce the count below 99 because the collection is no longer populated.

Example

The following example checks the Count property of the SharedWorkspaceLinks collection. If Count returns 0 (zero), it checks the ItemCountExceeded property to determine whether in fact the shared workspace has no saved links, or whether it has more than 99 and the links collection has been cleared.

ActiveWorkbook.SharedWorkspace.Refresh 
    If ActiveWorkbook.SharedWorkspace.Links.Count = 0 Then 
        If ActiveWorkbook.SharedWorkspace.Links.ItemCountExceeded Then 
            MsgBox "More than 99 links in shared workspace.", _ 
                vbInformation + vbOKOnly, "Item Count Exceeded" 
        Else 
            MsgBox "No links in shared workspace.", _ 
                vbInformation + vbOKOnly, "No Links" 
        End If 
    End If
