AddressEntry Property (Recipient Object)

 

AddressEntry Property (Recipient Object)

The AddressEntry property contains the AddressEntry object representing the recipient. Read/write.

Syntax

objRecipient.AddressEntry

Data Type

Object (AddressEntry)

Remarks

For a complete description of the relationship between the AddressEntry object and the Recipient object, see Using Addresses.

Accessing the AddressEntry property forces resolution of an unresolved recipient name. If the name cannot be resolved, CDO reports an error. For example, when the recipient contains an empty string, the resolve operation returns CdoE_AMBIGUOUS_RECIP.

Example

This code fragment compares the Address property of the Recipient object with the Address and Type properties of its child AddressEntry object, accessible through the recipients AddressEntry property, to demonstrate the relationships between these properties.

' from the sample function Session_AddressEntry
    If objOneRecip Is Nothing Then
        MsgBox "must select a recipient"
        Exit Function
    End If
    Set objAddrEntry = objOneRecip.AddressEntry
    If objAddrEntry Is Nothing Then
        MsgBox "no valid AddressEntry for this recipient"
        Exit Function
    End If
' from the sample function Util_CompareAddressParts
    strMsg = "Recipient full address = " & objOneRecip.Address
    strMsg = strMsg & "; AddressEntry type = " & objAddrEntry.Type
    strMsg = strMsg & "; AddressEntry address = " & _
                                                  objAddrEntry.Address
    MsgBox strMsg ' compare display names
    strMsg = "Recipient name = " & objOneRecip.Name
    strMsg = strMsg & "; AddressEntry name = " & objAddrEntry.Name
' Note  the Type properties are NOT the same:
'            AddressEntry.Type is the address type, such as SMTP
'            Recipient.Type is the recipient type, such as To: or Cc:
