Hello,

no, you can't...

And frankly, this doesn't make sense to me. You won't read those XML requests anyway by hand - only with a computer program. And in that case you can use constants in your program...

Hi Henning,

my main concern is to create custom fields, and assigning some specific
name to them, for example i would like to create a field with schema
http://microsoft.com/mapi/proptag/{hex value}/0x44545. This is can do
using the simple proppatch query, but i would like to assign a name to
it. can it be done.

thanks in advance.

Hello,

if by "Custom fields" you mean custom Outlook form fields... yes you can
create them. Just use the name of the field without any namespaces (PROPFIND
example)

<propfind>
    <prop>
        <mycustomproperty xmlns="" />
    </prop>
</prop>

If you just want to create a property that won't be consumed by a custom
outlook form, just use your own namespace (again, PROPFIND example):

<propfind xmns="DAV:">
    <prop>
        <mycustomproperty xmlns="                                tempuri.org/"">http://tempuri.org/"; />
    </prop>
</prop>

But you should replace the                                 tempuri.org">http://tempuri.org with your own namespace (if
you own a domain, use that, for example).
Same goes with the PROPPATCH method.

Best regards,
Henning
