MORE INFORMATION
================
Microsoft has planned the following added feature for inclusion in Microsoft
Exchange version 5.0 U.S. Service Pack 1. Hexadecimal numbers as well as strings
will be allowed, so you can refer to a named property by a GUID and "0x1234."
Tthe hexadecimal number must start with "0x," followed by four hexadecimal
digits, for example "0x0012."
The following is an example of using strings or a hexadecimal number:
Fields.SetNameSpace("0006200300000000C000000000000046")
Fields.Item(&H81010000)
NOTE: Any string starting with "0x" will be treated the same as a hexadecimal
number. "NNNNNNNN" will not be converted to a hexadecimal number. Hexadecimal
entries will only be accepted up to eight hex digits.
