Reply To: Set categories

[Support 1a]

Thank you for your question. By ‘new items’, do you mean new messages that arrive in the mailbox, or do you mean items that the user creates?

In order to set a category, you first need to grab an instance of the category object from the category definitions collection in the account:

for each oCategoryDef in GroupWise.Account.CategoryDefinitions
    if (iCategoryName = ucase(oCategoryDef.Name)) then
      set aCategory = oCategoryDef
      exit function
    end if
  next

Then, given an instance of a message object, you add the category object as shown here:

oMsg.Categories.add(aCategory)

As I alluded to above, the devil is in the detail regarding the scenario under which you want to add the category.

I hope this helps.
