"Sue Mosher [MVP-Outlook]" <suemvp[ at ]outlookcode.com> 5/18/2007 1:50:53 PM In the context of your question, "named properties" are properties that are largely (but not always) invisible to the user and accessible only through low-level APIs such as Extended MAPI, CDO 1.21, and Redemption. -- Sue Mosher, Outlook MVP Author of Configuring Microsoft Outlook 2003 http://www.turtleflock.com/olconfig/index.htm and Microsoft Outlook Programming - Jumpstart for Administrators, Power Users, and Developers http://www.outlookcode.com/jumpstart.aspx "newToOutlookProgramming" <newToOutlookProgramming[ at ]discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:716AF579-4B48-4167-A41C-427DFD54FAA6[ at ]microsoft.com...
