Using VB.Net, I need to read data from a Microsoft Outlook 2007 PST file and an external database, and sync the two sources.Past posts on SO mention Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook. I was wondering if VB.Net developers had successfully used this to work with Outlook, or if there were other solutions I should try instead.
View 2 RepliesIs that possible? Syncing all my gmail contacts to outlook with a visual basic software?
View 2 RepliesI am creating a Visual Basic 2008 .net application that will be using the Sync Service for ADO.NET on Windows 7 Ultimate. The back end database is SQL 2008. Below are the basic steps I take when the error occurs
a. Add a Local Database Cache item to my application
b. Use the Configure Data Synchronication wizard for the setup process
c. Click the OK button to accept changes
d. An error message is generated, "The given key was not present in the dictionary".
I have attempted this several times and the error message presists no matter how I vary the options. I have also installed Microsoft Sync Framework 2.0 successfully but the error persists. I also have all the following Dlls referenced in my project:
Microsoft.Synchronization.dll,
Microsoft.Synchronization.Data.dll,
Microsoft.Synchronization.Data.Server.dll,
Microsoft.Synchronization.Data.SqlServer.dll,
Microsoft.Synchronization.Data.SqlServerCe.dll.
I am sure I don't need all of these references but I figured it does not hurt to have them all referenced for now. I have the latest OS service and Visual Studio 2008 service packs.
I have been working on an application that has a built in contact database.I would like to be able to syncronize this with Outlook.
Specifically:
1)Bring Contacts in Custom App over to Outlook
2)Keep info on those contacts syncronized in Outlook and Custom App
3)Ignore contacts that are in Outlook but not in Custom App(ie do NOT bring them into custom App)

View 1 RepliesWe have developed a tool using VB.net and in one screen, we have placed a button - 'Contact Us'.
The business intent of this button is to - send query regarding technical help to our team. Once the user clicks on the Contact Us button, microsoft outlook new mail page should open where the mail ids of our team should be populated by default, the user jus has to type the subject and the body and send across to us.
How can I send emails from my Microsoft Outlook through my code. Dim OlApp As Outlook.Application doesn't even work for me.
View 1 RepliesI'm working on an application that takes certain outlook email messages, saved as text files, and loads data from them into a database. It would be better if I could read the messages from the inbox directly into my app without the user having to save them as text files. I've searched the web and every example I find is from 2003 or earlier and is using VB6. I'd like to read both Outlook and Outlook Express Inboxes. Can someone either provide me with the code to do this or a good "recent" link with a tutorial?
View 3 Repliesgot a little application that uses MAPI Control to:
extract e-mails from local outlook account,
-> checks Subject Field complies,
-> ->creates a .txt file from e-mail's body for further reference.
during runtime, Outlook MSG (attched jpg.. ) pops. and asks to user allow MailBox Access.
AS Application is meant to run in background, Looking for a way to have no user interaction during runtime
i.e.
->access the above e-mail from the server.
->create privileges programmatically. (?)
I can't seem to find a thing on what this exception code indicates on Google or MSDN, and it's occurring intermittently and without a pattern I can discern.The failure seems to occur on the final line here:
Dim olApp As New Outlook.Application
Dim olNS As Outlook.NameSpace = olApp.GetNamespace("MAPI")
Dim olMail As Outlook.MailItem = olApp.CreateItem(Outlook.OlItemType.olMailItem)
I have written a program in which I have import

Now when I write
Application.Exit()
It show error
Exit is not a member of Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook

View 1 RepliesI have a windows application and a php web application(not connected to internet all times), eventually data add/remove/update can happen at either places. So data has to be synchronized every day or manually.
I have a small sqllite database file (less than 500K) in my end, and the php web app uses Mysql, the structures remain the same. I would like to have a update function in my windows app, which sends my sqllite database file directly to my webserver and then1. Php should read values from the sqllite database files insert some values into mysql from the uploaded file 2. Php should read values from the mysql database files and insert them to sqllite database file
and finally send them back to my windows client pc. I would like to use .net 2.0.Anyone has an idea to get the above done or a suggestion to make the sync easier will help me a lot. Give me light on how the architecture or design should be done to achieve this

I have a small "Clinic Application" that runs on two machines. (Receptionists & Doctors)
Same application is installed at both the computers, and they access the same SQL Server 2008 Data at a 3rd macine.
When the application is started, the local datasets are filled with the data from the 3rd machine (using tableadapter.fill).
Whenever the Receptionist adds a Patient in DataGrid,and saved it, it should show in Doctors DataGrid. and whenever Doctor adds something, the receptionists dataGrid should show it.
to accomplish this I have set a timer that keeps Filling datasets.
the task is successfully accomplished, but....

I am building a VB 2008 Express Edition application.I have built a database (with a single table) using SQL Server Compact 3.5 and have connected it to the project. I am able to view and edit the data using a DataGridView on a second form (tutorial made this very easy). I need to work with the data in the table within the application. how to easily load the entire table into an array or even read the table a row or cell at a time so that I can make all of the data available for manipulation within the application (the tutorials only seem to show how to display the data).

I have a program in VB.Net that receives mails from Outlook, extracts attachments and inserts the attachments into a table through a query. I would like to put the query/queries in a Try/Catch block, but cannot do so as Outlook exceptions cannot be caught, and it gives me an error, and unless I put a very specific exception, I cannot catch it. Is there a workaround?
Edit:
Try
Catch ex As Exception
End Try
Exception is underlined and when I hover on it, it says: "Catch cannot catch type 'Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.Exception' because it is not in 'System.Exception' or a class that inherits from 'System.Exception'". This is affecting all my other code which I'd like to put into a Try/Catch block.

I put the procedure call in a try/catch block, and the application won't build, with the following error.

I work for a somewhat large company.There are about 160 Windows XP Pro users. We are still using Microsoft Office 2000 for the most part.We have upgraded some users to Office 2003. We are not using Microsoft Exchange.I have to export every users' Outlook 2000 or Outlook 2003 Contacts into an Excel or CSV file every 6 months as a way of backing the Outlook Address Contacts.Currently I am doing this by physically going to every pc and manually exporting the contacts.This is a large pain.I am trying to find out if I can use or create a Visual Basic 2008 Express program or script that will export the contacts from Outlook and save it as an Excel or CSV file.The name of the file should be the same as the computers net name.It should be saved in the same location, on the network, each time.I am new to programming and new to VB 2008 Express.I do not know or have any code to start with.
