Gets a Boolean value that indicates whether the number of SharedWorkspaceLinks items in the collection has exceeded the 99 that can be displayed in the Shared Workspace task pane. Read-only.

Syntax

expression.ItemCountExceeded

expression A variable that represents a SharedWorkspaceLinks object.

Return Value
Boolean

Remarks

The Shared Workspace task pane can only display 99 shared workspace files and folders, links, members, or tasks. If more than 99 items are added to any of these collections: the corresponding tab of the Shared Workspace task pane stops displaying the list of items and displays a link to the shared workspace site Web page instead; the collection is no longer populated locally and its Count property returns 0 (zero).

Furthermore, once the ItemCountExceeded property returns True for one of the collections listed above, the developer can no longer remedy the situation programmatically by deleting items from the collection to reduce the count below 99, because the collection is no longer populated.

Example
The following example checks the Count property of the SharedWorkspaceLinks collection. If Count returns 0 (zero), it checks the ItemCountExceeded property to determine whether in fact the shared workspace has no saved links, or whether it has more than 99 and the links collection has been cleared.

Visual Basic for Applications 
ActiveWorkbook.SharedWorkspace.Refresh If ActiveWorkbook.SharedWorkspace.Links.Count = 0 Then If ActiveWorkbook.SharedWorkspace.Links.ItemCountExceeded Then MsgBox "More than 99 links in shared workspace.", _ vbInformation + vbOKOnly, "Item Count Exceeded" Else MsgBox "No links in shared workspace.", _ vbInformation + vbOKOnly, "No Links" End If End If
