View Object

Views
View

The View object allows you to create customizable views that allow you to better sort, group and ultimately view data of all different types. There are a variety of different view types that provide the flexibility needed to create and maintain your important data.

  • The table view type (olTableView) allows you to view data in a simple field-based table.

  • The Calendar view type (olCalendarView) allows you to view data in a calendar format.

  • The card view type (olCardView) allows you to view data in a series of cards. Each card displays the information contained by the item and can be sorted.

  • The icon view type (olIconView) allows you to view data as icons, similar to a Windows folder or explorer.

  • The timeline view type (olTimelineView) allows you to view data as it is received in a customizable linear time line.

Views are defined and customized using the View object's XML property. The XML property allows you to create and set a customized XML schema that defines the various features of a view.

Using the View object

Use Views(index), where index is the name of the View object or its ordinal value, to return a single View object. The following example returns a view called Table View and stores it in a variable of type View called objView. Before running this example, make sure a view by the name 'Table View' exists.

Sub GetView()
'Creates a new view

    Dim olApp As Outlook.Application
    Dim objName As NameSpace
    Dim objViews As Views
    Dim objView As View

    Set olApp = Outlook.Application
    Set objName = olApp.GetNamespace("MAPI")
    Set objViews = objName.GetDefaultFolder(olFolderInbox).Views
    'Return a view called Table View
    Set objView = objViews.Item("Table View")

End Sub

Use the Add method of the Views collection to create a new view. The following example creates a new view of type olTableView called New Table.

Sub CreateView()
'Creates a new view

    Dim olApp As Outlook.Application
    Dim objName As NameSpace
    Dim objViews As Views
    Dim objNewView As View

    Set olApp = Outlook.Application
    Set objName = olApp.GetNamespace("MAPI")
    Set objViews = objName.GetDefaultFolder(olFolderInbox).Views
    Set objNewView = objViews.Add(Name:="New Table", _
                     ViewType:=olTableView, SaveOption:=olViewSaveOptionThisFolderEveryone)

End Sub
