Hi all,

I'm newbie so please be patient :eek:

I trying to understand if it exists a way to update an existing rule using VBA.

Within a routine I create a rule like the following:

Set myRules = Application.Session.DefaultStore.GetRules()
Set rl = myRules.Item("Photos")
Set olConditionSubject = rl.Conditions.Subject
With olConditionSubject
.Enabled = True
.Text = Array("White", "Black")
End With
myRules.Save

and that's fine... it works as desired... but how can I add one or more words?

If I create a new routine with

> ..

> ..

With olConditionSubject
.Enabled = True
.Text = Array("Red", "Green")
End With

it replace the one already present... how can I update the rule using VBA so it can filter on all words?

Cheers

Mauro
 
I'm (almost) always patient. :)

I'll check, but I would try reading the rule then updating it - not sure it will work, but I think that is the angle you need to use.

> Text = Array(txtRule, "Red", "Green")

Great Diane,

that's could be really the solution I was looking for: read the values from the existing rule in a variable, put the variable in the array with adding words... but:

how can I do it? :(:confused::(

Thx

Mauro
