These flags describe the types of customizations that a particular Source Provider supports.

Option Value Description

PIMSRC_CUSTOM_CONTACTS_SUMMARY_CARD

0x00000001

Enables a Source Provider to provide a customized Summary tab for associated Contact items when users open them from the Contact list view.

PIMSRC_CUSTOM_CONTACTS_PAINT_LIST_ICON

0x00000004

Enables a Source Provider to draw its own icon for associated Contact items when they appear in the Contact list view.

PIMSRC_CUSTOM_CONTACTS_NEW

0x00000008

Enables a Source Provider to display a custom user interface when users create new Contacts, and to save the new Contact item.

PIMSRC_CUSTOM_APPOINTMENTS_COLORS

0x00000800

Allows a Source Provider to display Appointment items with alternate background colors in the Agenda and Day views.

PIMSRC_CUSTOM_VALIDMASK

0x00000805

(PIMSRC_CUSTOM_CONTACTS_SUMMARY_CARD | PIMSRC_CUSTOM_CONTACTS_PAINT_LIST_ICON | PIMSRC_CUSTOM_CONTACTS_NEW | PIMSRC_CUSTOM_APPOINTMENTS_COLORS)

These flags are used to create the value for the Customizations Registry Key.

Multiple flags can be combined to create a bitmask.

For example, if you want to implement a custom summary card and a custom contact icon, but you do not want to display Appointments with alternate background colors, you might use the following Customizations registry key:

Copy 
HKLM
    \System
           \PIMSources
                      \001
                          \Colors
                          \CLSID
                          \(PIMSRC_CUSTOM_CONTACTS_SUMMARY_CARD | PIMSRC_CUSTOM_CONTACTS_PAINT_LIST_ICON)
