Fields Property (Message Object) 

The Fields property returns a single Field19WJLQ9 object or a Fields0EU12H collection object. Read-only.

Syntax

objMessage.Fields

objMessage.Fields(index)

objMessage.Fields(proptag)

objMessage.Fields(name)

index

Short integer (less than or equal to 65535). Specifies the index within the Fields collection.

proptag

Long integer (greater than or equal to 65536). Specifies the property tag value for the MAPI property to be retrieved.

name

String. Specifies the name of the custom MAPI property.

Data Type

Object

Remarks

The Fields property returns one or more of the fields associated with a Message object. Each field typically corresponds to a MAPI property.

The Fields property provides a generic access mechanism that allows Visual Basic and Visual C++ programmers to retrieve the value of a MAPI property using either its name or its MAPI property tag. For access with the property tag, use Message.Fields(proptag), where proptag is the 32-bit MAPI property tag associated with the property, such as PR_MESSAGE_CLASS. To access a named property, use Message.Fields(name), where name is a string that represents the custom property name.

Example

' get the message s Fields collection

    Set objFieldsColl = objOneMsg.Fields

' get the first field of the Fields collection of the message

    i = 1

    Set objOneField = objFieldsColl.Item(i)

    If objOneField Is Nothing Then

        MsgBox "error; cannot get this Field object"

    Else

        MsgBox "Selected Field " & i

    End If
