Property Value

The PropertyTag property returns a string representation of a property tag without the type part of the tag.

Remarks

The PropertyTag property can be represented as either a hexadecimal or a short integer.

The range between 0x8000 and 0xFFFE represents the custom range of properties. When a mailbox database encounters a custom property for the first time, it assigns that custom property a property tag within the custom property range of 0x8000-0xFFFE. A given custom property tag will most likely differ across databases. Therefore, a custom property request by property tag can return different properties on different databases. The use of the PropertyTag property is prohibited for custom properties. Instead, use the PropertySetId property and the PropertyName or PropertyId property.

If the PropertyTag property is used, the DistinguishedPropertySetId, PropertySetId, PropertyName, and PropertyId properties cannot be used.
