Reading Pane Settings

[Paul Rocca]

I would like to put a button on one of my command bars to programatically
toggle the Reading Pane option "mark item as read when selection changes".

The button bit is trivial, but I can find anything that exposes the settings
in a
way I can programmatically access.

Anyone got any suggestions?

That setting is not exposed in the object model. It's somewhere in the
registry. Outlook reads it on startup and caches changes made while the
Outlook session is running. It does not read that setting again until
Outlook is exited and restarted.

Oh, that's irritating. Ah well, at least I wasn't going mad
when I couldn't find the property.
Thanks anyway
