Parameters
| Name | Required/Optional | Data type | Description |

Return value
If you use Find to look for a custom property and the call succeeds, it returns a UserProperty object. If it fails, it returns Null (Nothing in Visual Basic).
If you use Find to look for a built-in property, specify False for the Custom parameter. If the call succeeds, it returns the property as a UserProperty object. If the call fails, it returns Null (Nothing in Visual Basic). If you specify True for Custom, the call does not find the built-in property and returns Null (Nothing in Visual Basic).
Remarks
If the Custom parameter is True, only custom user properties are searched. The default value is True. To find a non-custom property such as Subject, specify the Custom parameter as False; otherwise, it returns Nothing.
