Outlook Command

Audiojoe · Mar 18th, 2002, 09:37 AM

Afternoon you crazy cats,

I have some lovely VB code in a module to send an email, it contains such gems as:

.subject "My friend fancies you"
.body "Tick YES or NO"

and other such crud. But can anyone tell me what the command line is to make the mail flagged for follow up?

I've tried .followup but no damn good

First person to help me gets my total admiration until 5:04pm GMT, when I expect to find another problem that needs solving

Try with

.FlagStatus
.FlagDueBy
.FlagRequest

-------------

FlagDueBy Property
See Also Applies To Example Specifics
Returns or sets a Date specifying the date by which this mail message is due. This property is only valid if the FlagStatus property is also set for the message. This property corresponds to the MAPI property PR_REPLY_TIME. Read/write.

expression.FlagDueBy

expression Required. An expression that returns one of the objects in the Applies To list.

------------------------

FlagRequest Property
See Also Applies To Example Specifics
Returns or sets a String indicating the requested action for the mail message. This is a free-form text field. This property is only valid if the FlagStatus property is also set for the message. Read/write.

----------------------

FlagStatus Property

Thanks for the reply, I can't get it to work though. What single command should I be inserting that will put a follow up flag on the mail?

Has anyone got an idea about this? It's only a small thing but it's really bugging me?

I believe it should work with

.FlagStatus = olFlagMarked
