Outlook Object Model : Creating Outlook Categories programmatically and assign colors, shortcut keys to that

  • 아티클

In this blogpost, we will try to create the Outlook Categories programmatically using Outlook Object Model API. Also we will assign the relevant colors and shortcuts to that. Whenever we try with Outlook Object Model, it’s relatively simple.

 '[Code snippet to create Categories]

 Private Sub CreateCategory()

  

     Dim objNameSpace As NameSpace

     Dim objCategory As Category    

   

     ' Obtain a NameSpace object reference

     Set objNameSpace = Application.GetNamespace("MAPI")

     'Add the Category, set its color and shortcutkey, if any

     Set objCategory = objNameSpace.Categories.Add("SampleCat", OlCategoryColor.olCategoryColorDarkBlue, 
    _OlCategoryShortcutKey.olCategoryShortcutKeyNone)

    

    ' Clean up

     Set objCategory = Nothing

     Set objNameSpace = Nothing

     

 End Sub

  

 Happy programming!!
