Registration Properties

To register for this event, you need to set the registration item's EventMethod Field property to "OnSave" (C++ constant = EVT_ON_SAVE).

This event supports the following properties of Event Registration Items:

Criteria Field

Enabled Field

EventMethod Field

MatchScope Field

ScriptUrl Field

SinkClass Field

Remarks

This event is fired when a new item enters the store, when an existing item is saved, and when an item is moved or copied. This event does not fire when the item's parent folder is moved or copied.

See the IAsyncNotify Interface for information about processing asynchronous events in a Component Object Model (COM) object.
