Remarks

The View object allows you to create customizable views that allow you to better sort, group and ultimately view data of all different types. There are a variety of different view types that provide the flexibility needed to create and maintain your important data.

Views are defined and customized using the View object's XML property. The XML property allows you to create and set a customized XML schema that defines the various features of a view.

Use Views(index), where index is the name of the View object or its ordinal value, to return a single View object.

Use the Add(String, OlViewType, OlViewSaveOption) method of the Views collection to create a new view.

Always use Save() to save a view after you change any property of the view.
