Items.SetColumns Method
Outlook Developer Reference |
Caches certain properties for extremely fast access to those particular properties of an item within the collection.
Syntax
expression.SetColumns(Columns)
expression A variable that represents an Items object.
Remarks
The SetColumns method is useful for iterating through the Items object. If you don't use this method, Microsoft Office Outlook must open each item to access the property. With the SetColumns method, Outlook only checks the properties that you have cached. Properties which are not cached are returned empty.
SetColumns cannot be used, and will cause an error, with any property that returns an object. It cannot be used with the following properties:

The ConversationIndex property cannot be cached using the SetColumns method. However, this property will not result in an error like the other properties listed above.
