Example

This Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) example uses the ShowFormPage method to show a button, labeled All Fields, in the Show group of the ribbon of the active inspector. Clicking the All Fields button displays the All Fields page of the currently open item. If an error occurs, Outlook will display a message box to the user.

Sub ShowAllFieldsPage() 
 
 On Error GoTo ErrorHandler 
 
 Dim myInspector As Outlook.Inspector 
 
 Dim myItem As Object 
 
 
 
 Set myInspector = Application.ActiveInspector 
 
 myInspector.ShowFormPage ("All Fields") 
 
 Set myItem = myInspector.CurrentItem 
 
 myItem.Display 
 
 Exit Sub
