Note that the workflow instantiates an instance of our CustomCondition condition, initializes its
properties, and assigns it to the Condition property of the WhileActivity activity:
customcondition1.FieldName = “Title”;
customcondition1.ItemId = 1;
customcondition1.Keywords = “Document”;
customcondition1.ListName = “Documents”;
customcondition1.SiteUrl = “EnterSiteUrlHere”;
this.whileActivity1.Condition = customcondition1;
Also note that the WhileActivity activity contains an instance of our SequenceActivity custom activity,
which in turn contains two LogToHistoryListActivity activities.
