Syntax
expression. ItemRemove
expression A variable that represents an Items object.
Remarks
This event does not run when the last item in a Personal Folders file (.pst) is deleted, or if 16 or more items are deleted at once from a PST file, Microsoft Exchange mailbox, or an Exchange public folder. This event is not available in Microsoft Visual Basic Scripting Edition (VBScript).
Example
This Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) example optionally sends a notification message to a workgroup when the user removes a contact from the default Contacts folder. The sample code must be placed in a class module, and the Initialize_handler routine must be called before the event procedure can be called by Microsoft Outlook.
Public WithEvents myOlItems As Outlook.Items
Public Sub Initialize_handler()
Set myOlItems = Application.GetNamespace("MAPI").GetDefaultFolder(olFolderContacts).Items
End Sub
Private Sub myOlItems_ItemRemove()
Dim myOlMItem As Outlook.MailItem
If MsgBox("Do you want to notify the Sales Team?", vbYesNo + vbQuestion) = vbYes Then
Set myOlMItem = Application.CreateItem(olMailItem)
myOlMItem.To = "Sales Team"
myOlMItem.Subject = "Remove Contact"
myOlMItem.Body = "Remove the following contact from your list:"
myOlMItem.Display
End If
End Sub
