Formats Property (ContainerRenderer Object)
Formats Property (ContainerRenderer Object)
Important The Collaboration Data Objects (CDO) 1.2.1 Rendering objects are not installed by or supported for use with Exchange Server 2003 or later.
The Formats property returns a single Format object or a Formats collection. Read-only.
Syntax
Set objFormats = objContRend.Formats
Set objFormat = objContRend.Formats(index)
Set objFormat = objContRend.Formats(name)
objFormats
On successful return, contains the Formats collection of this container renderer.
objContRend
Required. The ContainerRenderer object.
objFormat
On successful return, contains an individual Format object belonging to this container renderers Formats collection.
index
Integer. An index into the container renderers Formats collection.
name
String. The reference name of a special-purpose Format object in the collection.
Data Type
Object (Format or Formats collection)
Remarks
Each format in the collection corresponds to a single property, except for special-purpose formats, which do not represent specific properties. Every property to be rendered should be represented by exactly one Format object.
New formats should be added to the collection before the DataSource property is set. If you define a new format after changing the data source, it is ignored during the rendering.
If a Format object is to be accessed with the index parameter, the value of index must be between 1 and the size of the container renderers Formats collection. This size is available in the collections Count property.
Although the Formats property itself is read-only, the collection it returns can be accessed in the normal manner through its Add method, and the properties on its member Format objects retain their respective read/write or read-only accessibility.
