ColumnFormat object (Outlook)
Represents the display properties of an order field or view field in a view.
Remarks
The ColumnFormat object represents the display properties, such as the alignment or field type, of an OrderField or ViewField object. Use the ColumnFormat property of the ViewField object to access the display properties of a view field.
Use the Label property to obtain or change the text used to label the field, or the Align property to determine the alignment of the contents within the field.
Use the FieldType property to determine the type and form of the data displayed for that field, and the FieldFormat property to determine how to format the data for that field.
Example
The following Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) example iterates through the ViewFields collection of the current TableView object, displaying the label and XML schema names of each ViewField object in the collection.
Private Sub DisplayTableViewFields()
Dim objTableView As TableView
Dim objViewField As ViewField
Dim strOutput As String
If Application.ActiveExplorer.CurrentView.ViewType = _
olTableView Then
' Obtain a TableView object reference for the
' current table view.
Set objTableView = _
Application.ActiveExplorer.CurrentView
' Iterate through the ViewFields collection for
' the table view, obtaining the label and the
' XML schema name for each field included in
' the view.
For Each objViewField In objTableView.ViewFields
With objViewField
strOutput = strOutput & .ColumnFormat.Label & _
" (" & .ViewXMLSchemaName & ")" & vbCrLf
End With
Next
' Display a dialog box containing the concatenated
' view field information.
MsgBox strOutput
End If
End Sub
