Tag Property

Returns a String specifying the name of the current search. The Tag property is used to identify a specific search.

expression.Tag

*expression   * Required. An expression that returns a **Search**object.

Remarks

The Tag property is set by using the AdvancedSearch method when the **Search**object is created.

Example

The following Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) example searches through the user's Inbox for all items that do not have a flag. The name "FlagSearch", specified by the Tag property, is given to the search. The AdvanceSearchComplete event procedure sets the boolean blnSearchComp to True when the search is complete. This boolean variable is used by the TestAdvancedSearchComplete() procedure to determine when the search is complete. The sample code must be placed in a class module such as ThisOutlookSession, and the TestAdvancedSearchComplete() sub routine must be called before the event procedure can be called by Microsoft Outlook. The AdvanceSearchComplete event procedure displays the tag to the user so the user can identify which search was completed because usually the search is asynchronous (use the IsSynchronous property to determine if the search will be synchronous or asynchronous), and you can execute multiple searches simultaneously.

Public blnSearchComp As Boolean

Private Sub Application_AdvancedSearchComplete(ByVal SearchObject As Search)
    MsgBox "The AdvancedSearchComplete Event fired for " & SearchObject.Tag & " and the scope was " & SearchObject.Scope
    blnSearchComp = True
End Sub

Sub TestAdvancedSearch111Complete()
    'List all items in the Inbox that do NOT have a flag:
    Dim objSch As Outlook.Search
    Const strF As String = "urn:schemas:httpmail:messageflag IS NULL"
    Const strS As String = "Inbox"
    Dim rsts As Outlook.Results
    Dim i As Integer
    blnSearchComp = False
    Const strF1 As String = "urn:schemas:mailheader:subject = 'Test'"
    Const strS1 As String = "Inbox"
    Set objSch = _
        Application.AdvancedSearch(Scope:=strS1, Filter:=strF1, Tag:="FlagSearch")
    While blnSearchComp = False
        DoEvents
    Wend
    Set rsts = objSch.Results
    For i = 1 To rsts.Count
        MsgBox rsts.Item(i).SenderName
    Next
End Sub
