The extended property attribute combination is invalid. I'm trying to set the label color of an appointment and I just can't get the right attribute combination. My code is: PathToExtendedFieldType label = new PathToExtendedFieldType(); Guid mapiGuid = new Guid("{00062002-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}"); label.PropertySetId = mapiGuid.ToString("D"); label.PropertyId = 0x8214; label.PropertyIdSpecified = true; label.PropertyType = MapiPropertyTypeType.String; ExtendedPropertyType labelColor = new ExtendedPropertyType(); labelColor.ExtendedFieldURI = label; labelColor.Item = "0x3"; This obviously does not work. I have tried many different variations and nothing seems to work. I used Outlook Spy and I see the MAPI property in there and the guid and the value. What am I doing wrong here. I can't believe MS made it this difficult to programatically change a label color. Thanks a lot guys! Any help would be appreciated. Cheers, ~ck
Hello, the proper value type of the 0x8214 property is integer. Have you tried that?
