Property

FolderItem.Alias

Warning

This item was deprecated in version 2019r2. Please use FolderItem.IsAlias as a replacement.

Description

Returns True if the item is an Alias.

Notes

In most cases, a FolderItem is going to resolve the Alias to point to the actual file. If you need the actual Alias itself, then you should use FolderItem.ChildAt, FolderItem.Child or FolderItem(f as FolderItem).

Sample code

Dim f As New FolderItem
If f.Alias Then
  MsgBox("The folderitem is an alias.")
Else
  MsgBox("The folderitem is not an alias.")
End If

Compatibility

All project types on all supported operating systems.
