Form Configuration File [Verbs] Section

The [Verbs] section lists the complete set of verbs supported by the form. The format of the [Verbs] section is:

[Verbs]
Verb1
= string

Following is an example of a [Verbs] section.

[Verbs]
Verb1=1
Verb2=2
 

Each verb is defined in a separate [Verb.string] section. A [Verb.string] section describes a single verb offered by the form. The DisplayName entry in a [Verb.string] section specifies the command name displayed in the user interface. The Code entry corresponds to the verb number passed in the IMAPIForm::DoVerb method. The syntax for the [Verb.string] section is:

[Verb.string]
DisplayName = displayed string
Code = integer
Flags = integer
Attribs = integer

Following is an example of a [Verb.string] section.

[Verb.1]
DisplayName=Reply
code=1
Flags=0
Attribs=2

[Verb.2]
DisplayName=Delete
Code=2
Flags=0
Attribs=2
 

Verbs listed in this section are retrieved by a client using the IMAPIFormInfo::CalcVerbSet method. Verbs are activated by calling the form's IMAPIForm::DoVerb method and passing it the code number of the verb to be performed.
