RenderUsing Property (Column Object)
Important The Collaboration Data Objects (CDO) 1.2.1 Rendering objects are not installed by or supported for use with Exchange Server 2003 or later.
The RenderUsing property returns or sets a rendering source that determines how a column property is rendered. Read/write.
Syntax
objColumn.RenderUsing
Data Type
Variant (String)
Remarks
The RenderUsing property provides a source for rendering the column property into HTML hypertext. The column property is designated in the columns Property property.
If no column rendering information is available, the container renderer searches for a Format object representing the renderable property. If no such format can be found, or if the format contains no Pattern object appropriate for the renderable propertys value, the property is rendered by default according to its data type and value.
If the RenderUsing string contains substitution tokens within percent signs, such as %value%, the tokens are replaced by the appropriate attributes of the column property to generate the HTML hypertext. If there are no substitution tokens in the string, the string itself is rendered without modification.
For more information on rendering sources and substitution tokens, see the Pattern objects RenderUsing property.
