Hi,

How do i search items by their UserProperty specific value?
e.g. : i would like to search all items in the Calendar folder with the specific UserProperty value.

Thanks,
Udi

Hi Udi.

You can use the Find method of the Outlook.Items interface.
Please read about this method in the Visual Basic Help for Outlook.

This find method allow searching only within the item attributes not the the UserProperties.

Udi, it works with user properties too. However they should be available in a folder.

just to better clarify - i am setting user properties within the items inside the folder - not the folder(Calendar) and now i want to search among all items where the specific User Property has a specific value!

Thanks,
Udi

Udi, what value do you pass in the 'AddToFolderFields' parameter of the 'Add' method of the Outlook.UserProperties interface?
To use the Find method you need to pass 'true'.
