IMAPIControl::Activate

Applies to: Office 2010 | Outlook 2010 | Visual Studio

Performs a task such as displaying a dialog box or starting a programmatic operation when a client application user clicks the button control.

HRESULT Activate(
  ULONG ulFlags,
  ULONG_PTR ulUIParam
);

Parameters

  • ulFlags
    [in] Reserved; must be zero.

  • ulUIParam
    [in] A handle to the parent window of the dialog box on which the button control appears.

Return Value

  • S_OK
    The button control was successfully activated.

Remarks

The IMAPIControl::Activate method performs tasks following a user's click of the button control. After the click occurs, as part of the processing of the display table, MAPI makes a call to Activate after first calling IMAPIControl::GetState to determine whether the button is enabled.
