Explorer.ViewSwitch Event

Occurs when the view in the explorer changes, either as a result of user action or through program code.

Syntax

expression.ViewSwitch

expression   A variable that represents an Explorer object.

Remarks

This event is not available in Microsoft Visual Basic Scripting Edition (VBScript).

Example

This Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) example hides the preview pane if it is visible when the user switches to Messages with AutoPreview view. The sample code must be placed in a class module, and the Initialize_handler routine must be called before the event procedure can be called by Microsoft Outlook.

  Dim WithEvents myOlExpl As Outlook.Explorer
Sub Initialize_handler()
Set myOlExpl = Application.ActiveExplorer
End Sub
Private Sub myOlExpl_ViewSwitch()
If myOlExpl.CurrentView = "Messages with AutoPreview" And myOlExpl.IsPaneVisible(olPreview) = True Then
myOlExpl.ShowPane olPreview, False
End If
End Sub
