Add UserProperties to Journal Folder

R

rebdewinter

I have been working on a solution to add custom forms,
views and user-defined-fields to the contacts and journal
folders of Outlook. I've had no problem with adding the
forms or views and I had no problem with adding the custom
fields to the contacts folder, but for some reason the
same logic is not working with the journal folder. This
is the code:

MyJournalItem = myOlApp.CreateItem _
(Outlook.OlItemType.olJournalItem)
MyProp = MyJournalItem.UserProperties.Add("My Prop", _
Outlook.olUserPropertyType.olText, True)

This code works fine for the contact item equivalent, and
it runs fine, but then the new user property "My Prop"
does not show up in the User-defined-fields area of the
Journal folder field chooser. I've even tried saving and
closing the journal form (MyJournalItem) and it still
doesn't work. Can anyone help?

thanks!
