SYMPTOMS
If you have a custom MAPI form that implements custom verbs or actions through DoVerb, and an item with an attachment uses this form, invoking the custom verbs from the shortcut menu does not work properly. DoVerb is not called and random verbs (such as Print) may run. This problem does not occur in earlier versions of Outlook.



RESOLUTION
To resolve this problem, obtain Microsoft Office 2000 Service Release 1/1a (SR-1/SR-1a).

The following code demonstrates how to set the named property (0x8510) on an item. This code can be used at item creation to set the property on items using the custom form. Additionally, this code could be used in a utility to add the property to existing items on the affected message class. //This code assumes that pmsg is a pointer to the message SPropValue rgvalToWrite;//this is property to write MAPINAMEID sPropName[1]; LPMAPINAMEID psPropNames[1]; SPropTagArray * pPropTags = NULL; //Build the GUID for GetIDsFromNames. GUID  testguid; testguid.Data1 = 0x62008; testguid.Data2 = 0x0; testguid.Data3 = 0x0; memset (testguid.Data4,0,8); testguid.Data4[0] = 0xC0; testguid.Data4[7] = 0x46;

//Set up the request to GetIDsFromNames. sPropName[0].lpguid = & testguid; sPropName[0].ulKind = MNID_ID; sPropName[0].Kind.lID = 0x8510; psPropNames[0] = &sPropName[0];

//Find the property tag we want to write to. hr = pmsg->GetIDsFromNames(1, psPropNames, MAPI_CREATE, &pPropTags); rgvalToWrite.ulPropTag = PROP_TAG(PT_LONG, PROP_ID(pPropTags->aulPropTag[0])); ULONG cVal; LPSPropValue propval;

//Get the current value of the property. hr = pmsg->GetProps(pPropTags,0, &cVal, &propval); //Set the 256 bit. if (S_OK == hr) rgvalToWrite.Value.l = propval->Value.x | 256; else rgvalToWrite.Value.l = 256; //***********************************************************************************

// Everything to set is now in rgvalToWrite. // Write the property back to the item. hr = pmsg->SetProps(1, &rgvalToWrite, NULL);



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article. This problem was corrected in Microsoft Office 2000 SR-1/SR-1a.
