check or uncheck the column with Icon format sd <dshubhangi[ at ]gmail.com> 11/21/2008 2:53:38 PM hello I've a custom message form with a user defined property say "chk".I've customized view for "Inbox" to display this prop. & formatted this column to show Icon instead of yes/no values.The view is displayed properly but I'm not able to check/uncheck this checkbox.Is it possible to check/uncheck this checkbox without opening the message ? will adjoined form region be any use for this purpose? I can check the checkbox if I create customized view for Contact folder.But not for "Inbox" folder. thanks

Re: check or uncheck the column with Icon format sd <dshubhangi[ at ]gmail.com> 12/22/2008 10:57:36 AM I've also combobox on my custom message form & now Userproperty associated with this combobox is added to custom view so user can edit it. Is it possible to display this field as combobox in custom view (so user can view list of values & select from the list) ? It is currently displayed like a textbox. Thanks

Re: check or uncheck the column with Icon format "Ken Slovak - [MVP - Outlook]" <kenslovak[ at ]mvps.org> 12/22/2008 2:02:00 PM If in-cell editing is enabled and the XML setting in the view for that column is <type>i4</type> then it will show up as a drop-down. -- Ken Slovak [MVP - Outlook] http://www.slovaktech.com Author: Professional Programming Outlook 2007.

Re: check or uncheck the column with Icon format sd <dshubhangi[ at ]gmail.com> 12/23/2008 1:10:41 PM Thanks Ken I've enabled in cell editing & set the type to i4 for the userproperty column in the view but still unable to display column as dropdown list in the view.What else is missing ?When I checked Importance column (already present in view) display format, it is "Bitmap with poplist" hence shown as list.But since my column represents a userproperty of type string ,it's display format is "Text" only.Do I need to change the userproperty type ? This userproperty is associted with a combobox present on custom message form.I'm using Outlook 2003.

Re: check or uncheck the column with Icon format "Ken Slovak - [MVP - Outlook]" <kenslovak[ at ]mvps.org> 12/23/2008 2:10:21 PM You would need to have the correct type of user property of course. A string can only display one value. Once a user property is created it cannot be modified as to type, so you'd need to create a new user property. -- Ken Slovak [MVP - Outlook] http://www.slovaktech.com Author: Professional Programming Outlook 2007.

Re: check or uncheck the column with Icon format sd <dshubhangi[ at ]gmail.com> 12/24/2008 12:26:50 PM Thanks Ken I tried with types other than text but still unable to display the column in view as dropdown list.The view is tableview.What needs to be the type of userproperty so that column representing this userproperty in view will be displayed as dropdown list ?

Re: check or uncheck the column with Icon format "Ken Slovak - [MVP - Outlook]" <kenslovak[ at ]mvps.org> 12/24/2008 2:41:10 PM OK, it looks like the Sensitivity column, which does have a drop-down, uses an internal only setting for the property that's not available to you. So it looks like you can't display a drop-down in the table view unless it's for a built-in property. For a user property it would display only the selected value (text or number) of your set of values. Sorry for misleading you. -- Ken Slovak [MVP - Outlook] http://www.slovaktech.com Author: Professional Programming Outlook 2007.
