);

Parameters

ulUIParam

[in] Handle of the parent windows for any dialog boxes or windows this function displays.

lpvContext

[in] Pointer to an arbitrary value passed to the callback function when MAPI calls it. This value can represent an address of significance to the client application. Typically, for C++ code, lpvContext represents a pointer to a C++ object.

cbEntryID

[in] Size, in bytes, of the entry identifier pointed to by the lpSelection parameter.

lpSelection

[in] Pointer to the entry identifier defining the selection in the dialog box.

ulFlags

[in] Reserved; must be zero.

Return value

S_OK

The call succeeded and has returned the expected value or values.

Remarks

Client applications call a callback function based on the LPFNBUTTON prototype to define a button in a details dialog box. The client passes a pointer to the callback function in calls to the IAddrBook::Details method.

Service providers call a hook function based on the LPFNBUTTON prototype to define a button in a details dialog box. The provider passes a pointer to this hook function in calls to the IMAPISupport::Details method.

In both cases, when the dialog box is displayed and the user chooses the defined button, MAPI calls LPFNBUTTON.
