  1. Use Folder.GetStorage to obtain an existing StorageItem object in a specific folder. This call will return a new StorageItem object if none already exists.

  2. Use StorageItem.Delete to remove the object permanently from the folder.

  3. Use Folder.GetStorage to create a new instance of the StorageItem object with the same subject.

  5. Set the Order Number property.

Sub StoreData() 
 Dim oInbox As Folder 
 Dim myStorage As StorageItem 
 Dim myPrivateProperty As UserProperty 
 
 Set oInbox = Application.Session.GetDefaultFolder(olFolderInbox) 
 ' Get an existing instance of StorageItem by subject 
 Set myStorage = oInbox.GetStorage("My Private Storage", olIdentifyBySubject) 
 
 'Remove the storage permanently assuming it's old 
 myStorage.Delete 
 Set myStorage = Nothing 
 
 'Get a new instance of StorageItem in the Inbox 
 Set myStorage = oInbox.GetStorage("My Private Storage", olIdentifyBySubject) 
 
 'Create custom property for Order Number 
 Set myPrivateProperty = myStorage.UserProperties.Add("Order Number", olNumber) 
 
 'Store application data in the Order Number property 
 myPrivateProperty.Value = 1000 
 
 'Save the data to the Inbox 
 myStorage.Save 
End Sub
