Email1AddressType Property

Microsoft Outlook Visual Basic

Returns or sets a String representing the address type (such as EX or SMTP) of the first e-mail entry for the contact. This is a free-form text field, but it must match the actual type of an existing e-mail transport. Read/write.

expression.Email1AddressType

expression        Required. An expression that returns a ContactItem object.

Example

This Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) example sets "SMTP" as the address type for the first e-mail entry of a contact.

Sub SetType()
	Dim myOlApp As New Outlook.Application
	Dim myItem As Outlook.ContactItem
	Set myOlApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
	Set myItem = myOlApp.CreateItem(olContactItem)
 	myItem.Email1Address = "[email protected]"
	myItem.Email1AddressType = "SMTP"
	myItem.Display
End Sub
		

If you use Microsoft Visual Basic Scripting Edition (VBScript) in a Microsoft Outlook form, you do not create the Application object, and you cannot use named constants. This example shows how to perform the same task using VBScript code.

Set myItem = Application.CreateItem(2)
myItem.Email1Address = "[email protected]"
myItem.Email1AddressType = "SMTP"
