Outlook View Controls on a custom Outlook form are reset in Outlook 2003 (883557)



The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Office Outlook 2003

SYMPTOMS

When you add more than one Outlook View Control on a custom Microsoft Outlook form in Microsoft Office Outlook 2003 and then set the AxViewCTL1.Folder property to point to an Outlook folder multiple times, the existing view is reset for all Outlook View Controls that are on the form.

CAUSE

This issue may occur if the AxViewCTL1.Folder property of each Outlook View Control is set to the same folder more than one time.

RESOLUTION

To resolve this issue, assign the code to set the AxViewCTL1.Folder property only one time in the Item_Open event of the Outlook custom form, instead of multiple times in the Button_click event of a button on the form.
