Conflicts Object

Outlook Developer Reference

Contains a collection of Conflict objects that represent all Microsoft Outlook items that are in conflict with a particular Outlook item.

Remarks

Use the **Conflicts**property of any Outlook item, such as MailItem, to return the Conflicts object.

Use the Count property of the Conflicts object to determine if the item is invloved in a conflict. A non-zero value indicates conflict.

Use the Item method to retrieve a particular conflict item from the Conflicts collection object.

Use the GetFirst, GetNext, GetPrevious, and GetLast methods to traverse the Conflicts collection.

Example

The following Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) example uses the Count property of the Conflicts object to determine if the item is involved in any conflict. To run this example, make sure an e-mail item is open in the active window.

Visual Basic for Applications
  Sub CheckConflicts()
    Dim myItem As Outlook.MailItem
    Dim myConflicts As Outlook.Conflicts
    
    Set myItem = Application.ActiveInspector.CurrentItem
    Set myConflicts = myItem.Conflicts
    If (myConflicts.Count > 0) Then
        MsgBox ("This item is involved in a conflict.")
    Else
        MsgBox ("This item is not involved in any conflicts.")
    End If
End Sub
