DocumentItem.LastModificationTime property (Outlook)

Returns a Date specifying the date and time that the Outlook item was last modified. Read-only.

Syntax

expression. LastModificationTime

expression A variable that represents a DocumentItem object.

Remarks

This property corresponds to the MAPI property PidTagLastModificationTime.

Example

This Visual Basic for Applications example uses the Items.Restrict method to apply a filter to contact items based on the item's LastModificationTime property. You can apply a similar approach to filter on the LastModificationTime property of other Outlook items.

Public Sub ContactDateCheck() 
 
 Dim myNamespace As Outlook.NameSpace 
 
 Dim myContacts As Outlook.Items 
 
 Dim myItems As Outlook.Items 
 
 Dim myItem As Object 
 
 
 
 Set myNamespace = Application.GetNamespace("MAPI") 
 
 Set myContacts = myNamespace.GetDefaultFolder(olFolderContacts).Items 
 
 Set myItems = myContacts.Restrict("[LastModificationTime] > '01/1/2003'") 
 
 For Each myItem In myItems 
 
 If (myItem.Class = olContact) Then 
 
 MsgBox myItem.FullName & ": " & myItem.LastModificationTime 
 
 End If 
 
 Next 
 
End Sub

The following Visual Basic for Applications example is the same as the example above, except that it demonstrates the use of a variable in the filter.

Public Sub ContactDateCheck2() 
 
 Dim myNamespace As Outlook.NameSpace 
 
 Dim myContacts As Outlook.Items 
 
 Dim myItem As Object 
 
 Dim DateStart As Date 
 
 Dim DateToCheck As String 
 
 Dim myRestrictItems As Outlook.Items 
 
 
 
 Set myNameSpace = Application.GetNamespace("MAPI") 
 
 Set myContacts = myNameSpace.GetDefaultFolder(olFolderContacts).Items 
 
 DateStart = #01/1/2003# 
 
 DateToCheck = "[LastModificationTime] >= """ & DateStart & """" 
 
 Set myRestrictItems = myContacts.Restrict(DateToCheck) 
 
 For Each myItem In myRestrictItems 
 
 If (myItem.Class = olContact) Then 
 
 MsgBox myItem.FullName & ": " & myItem.LastModificationTime 
 
 End If 
 
 Next 
 
End Sub
