Hide bcc field in draft email display

Question

I'm trying to hide the Bcc field in an email being drafted in Outlook 2010.

I'm using code to add an email address to Bcc which shows the field. I want the real-estate on the screen back.

Here's what I have so far (in ThisOutlookSession):

Sub add_bcc_to_cur_email()
    Dim cur_msg As MailItem
    Set cur_msg = ActiveInspector.CurrentItem
    cur_msg.BCC = "[email protected]" 'this works correctly
    cur_msg.GetInspector.CommandBars.ExecuteMso "Bcc" 'this does nothing
End Sub

I was thinking there was a way to control the visibility of the Bcc field directly. I found this -- The second post seemed to have a solution, but that was for 2003.

I thought I could try to launch the Bcc item in the Ribbon: Options > Show Fields > Bcc.
I googled and came up with this. The thread seemed to be inconclusive.

This worked for me in 2010

cur_msg.GetInspector.Commandbars("Menu Bar").Controls("View").controls("Bcc Field").execute
