SUMMARY
When an application logs on to Exchange Server using a profile that includes an offline store (OST), it may be necessary to determine the online/offline status of the store programmatically. This information is found in a MAPI property (PR_STORE_OFFLINE) that is set on the Message Store object. The PR_STORE_OFFLINE property is a Boolean property that is True if the store is offline and False if the store is online.
From CDO (1.x), the PR_STORE_OFFLINE property is exposed as a member of the Fields collection of an InfoStore object.
MORE INFORMATION
The following Visual Basic code sample demonstrates how to access the PR_STORE_OFFLINE property of an InfoStore object using the CDO (1.x) Library. This code assumes a valid reference to the Collaboration Data Objects (1.x) Library.
Private Sub Command1_Click()
Dim objSession As MAPI.Session
Dim objInfoStore As InfoStore
Set objSession = CreateObject("mapi.session")
objSession.Logon
Set objInfoStore = objSession.InfoStores("Public Folders")
If objInfoStore.Fields(&H6632000B).Value Then 'PR_STORE_OFFLINE
MsgBox "Store is offline", , "Offline Status"
Else
MsgBox "Store is online", , "Offline Status"
End If
End Sub
