Namespace:  Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook
Assembly:  Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook (in Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
<DispIdAttribute()> _
Function CompareEntryIDs ( _
    FirstEntryID As String, _
    SecondEntryID As String _
) As Boolean
'Usage
Dim instance As _NameSpace
Dim FirstEntryID As String
Dim SecondEntryID As String

    SecondEntryID)
[DispIdAttribute()]
bool CompareEntryIDs(
    string FirstEntryID,
    string SecondEntryID
)

Parameters

  • FirstEntryID
    Type: System.String

    The first entry ID to be compared.

  • SecondEntryID
    Type: System.String

    The second entry ID to be compared.

Return Value

Remarks

Entry identifiers cannot be compared directly because one object can be represented by two different binary values. Use this method to determine whether two entry identifiers represent the same object.
