FormRegion.SetControlItemProperty Method (Outlook)

Binds an explicit built-in property or a custom property to a control in the form region.

Version Information

Version Added: Outlook 2007

Syntax

expression A variable that represents a FormRegion object.

Required/Optional

Data Type

Description

Control

Required

Object

A control in the form region to which the property specified by PropertyName will be bound.

PropertyName

Required

String

The name of the property that will be bound to the control.

Remarks

You can use this method to bind an explicit built-in property or a custom property to a control. You must reference the property by its string name, for example, Subject, and not by namespace, for example, https://schemas.microsoft.com/mapi/proptag/0x0037001E.

The PropertyName parameter is not case-sensitive. For example, SetControlItemProperty interprets an argument, CustomerId, to be the same as CustomerID and binds the specified control to the built-in ContactItem.CustomerID property.

Other than using the SetControlItemProperty method of a FormRegion object, you can also use code similar to the following to bind a property such as the Subject property to a control:

myPage.Controls("bar").ItemProperty = "subject"
