Contains a number that uniquely identifies the attachment within its parent message.

Property Value
Associated properties:
PR_ATTACH_NUM
Identifier:
0x0E21
Data type:
PT_LONG
Area:
Message attachment

Remarks

Message stores generate and maintain this property. The attachment number is the secondary sort key, after the rendering position, in the attachment table.

PR_ATTACH_NUM is used to open the attachment with the IMessage::OpenAttach method. Within a client application's session, the PR_ATTACH_NUM property of a message attachment remains constant as long as the attachment table is open.

The message store propagates changes to the table using the IMessage::CreateAttach and IMessage::DeleteAttach methods. At its option the message store can generate table notifications on open attachment tables so that clients can resynchronize to those changes.
