MS Office Forum / Outlook / Programming VBA / March 2008Configure Reading Pane
I am trying to put together a Macro to enumerate all folders in my profile and turn off the Reading Pane for each folder. I have everything working except the turning off thepane. I did not find much on Google, and I went through the Outlook VBA help, no luck there either. Is this even possible ? Thanks in advance. TDM You will need to use the Explorer.CommandBars collection for each folder to turn that off. Use the ActiveExplorer.CurrentFolder object and set it to each folder you have in turn. Then get Explorer.CommandBars and use the FindControl method of the CommandBars object to find a CommandBarButton with the ID of 7223. Then call the Execute method on that button. Repeat for each folder.

Many thanks for the inputs, I will post success or failure. TDM Sue's correct, I had forgotten about that method. The reading pane is just another name for the preview pane.

What about using Explorer.ShowPane olPreview, False instead? SignatureSue Mosher, Outlook MVP Author of Microsoft Outlook 2007 Programming: Jumpstart for Power Users and Administrators http://www.outlookcode.com/article.aspx?id=54 Well, it turns out I was already using the code you mention, but I assumed the PreviewPane was just that, the PreviewPane. Once I actually manually traversed most of my folders, I noticed that indeed, the Reading pane was off so it was actually working, I just did not know it because of the verbage confusion. So, how does one actually turn off the PreviewPane, is there some othe obscure property for that ? Thanks again for your inputs. TDM > What about using Explorer.ShowPane olPreview, False instead? OK, my stupidity, it is AutoPreview and I got it figured. Sorry. TDM |
