expression   Required. An expression that returns an OutlookBarStorage object.

Example

The following Microsoft Visual Basic/Visual Basic for Applications example displays the number of groups in the Outlook Bar.

  Dim myOlApp As New Outlook.Application
Dim myOlBar As Outlook.OutlookBarPane
Set myOlBar = myOlApp.ActiveExplorer.Panes.Item("OutlookBar")
myCount = myOlBar.Contents.Groups.Count
MsgBox "There are " & myCount & " groups in the Outlook Bar"

If you use VBScript, you do not create the Application object. This example shows how to perform the same task using VBScript.

  Set myOlBar = Application.ActiveExplorer.Panes.Item("OutlookBar")
myCount = myOlBar.Contents.Groups.Count
MsgBox "There are " & myCount & " groups in the Outlook Bar"
