Class Actions (Outlook VBA)

Contains a collection of Action objects that represent all the specialized actions that can be executed on an Outlook item. To use a Actions class variable it first needs to be instantiated, for example

Dim acts as Actions
Set acts = Session.CreateSharingItem.Reply.Actions

For Each

Here is an example of processing the Actions items in a collection.

Dim act As Action
For Each act In Session.CreateSharingItem.Reply.Actions
	
Next act

Add

Creates a new action in the Actions collection.

Sub AddAction() 
 
 Dim myItem As Outlook.MailItem 
 
 Dim myAction As Outlook.Action 
 
 
 
 Set myItem = Application.CreateItem(olMailItem) 
 
 Set myAction = myItem.Actions.Add 
 
 myAction.Name = "Link Original" 
 
 myAction.ShowOn = olMenuAndToolbar 
 
 myAction.ReplyStyle = olLinkOriginalItem 
 
 myItem.To = "Dan Wilson" 
 
 myItem.Send 
 
End Sub
