You can do what you want using Redemption or Extended MAPI. Extended
MAPI can only be directly coded using C++ or Delphi and has a long
learning curve. Redemption can be used from VB or VBA and is a COM
wrapper for some of Extended MAPI.
There's sample code on the Redemption Web site that shows how to add
named properties to an item using Redemption. See the information
about HrSetOneProp there. Click on the Utilities button at the top of
the Web site to get there.
