IContentItem.SetItemReferencePropertyValue Method 

Updates the value of the IItemReferenceProperty.

void SetItemReferencePropertyValue(
   IBaseProperty itemRefProperty,
   IContentItem contentItem
);

Parameters

itemRefProperty
The IItemReferenceProperty; cannot be null.
contentItem
The content item to create a reference to; cannot be null.

Remarks

An InvalidOperationException will be thrown if this method is called on an item that is not checked out. The updated property value will not be persisted until IContentItemManager.CheckInItem is called. If the content item does not contain the specified property, an ArgumentException will be thrown when IContentItemManager.CheckInItem is called.


The code sample below shows how to retrieve an existing content item by name and set the value of an IItemReferenceProperty to the retrieved content item. 
// Set the ItemReferenceProperty value to another existing Content item,
// assuming there is another content item named "News" in the specified folder.
IContentItem newsItem = contentItemManager.GetContentItem(folder, "News");
contentItemManager.CheckOutItem(contentItem);
contentItem.SetItemReferencePropertyValue(itemReferenceProperty, newsItem);
 
// Check-in the Content item to persist the updated Item Reference property value.
contentItemManager.CheckInItem(contentItem, "Check-in the item with Item Reference Property value updated.");
 
// Retrieves the value after the item is checked-in.
IContentItem retrievedItemRefPropValue = contentItem.GetItemReferencePropertyValue(itemReferenceProperty);

See the code sample in IContentItem for an example of how to modify a property value of different types.
