Moving .msg From A File To A MAPI Folder?
Jul 24, 2009is there any way to move a contact or apointment item from a file (ie C: est) to a MAPI folder? The way I have it set up now I can save all the items from the outlook MAPI folder into the file, but I can't retrieve them. I've tried my.computer. filesystem. copyfile, but there seems to be no way of feeding it the mapi folder as a string it can understand. I've tried to see if I could open the .msg from the file as any format I could think of, and then saving it. No luck there. I've searched extensively, too, though I'm not sure I was using the correct terms.
My end goal is to make a folder on a shared drive that other users can go to and look at a list of contacts and or calendar items, then possibly upload them into their own contacts/calendars. I've even tried taking all the relevent data out of them and putting it into a text file, then uploading it to outlook. I got that working well enough, but it seems so convoluted, and is far from robust. It seems like it should be easy to just copy them over, since you can just click and drag them on the UI, but I haven't had any luck
Use When Upgrading To NET In Place Of VB6 MAPI MAPISession & MAPIMessages?
Jan 26, 2011I want to upgrade and re-write a VB6 program in VB.NET I used VB6 MAPI MAPISession & MAPIMessages to read and view email messages into a Data Grid in the VB6 program I want to be able to load and view the email messages into a DataGrid in VB.NET using Visual Studio
Not at all sure of what I should be searching for or what replaces the VB6 MAPI method in the VB NET code
I have tried searching for sample code and read many forums, but still not on the right track
VS 2010 Retrieving Specific Emails (MAPI / CDO / WSK)
Mar 1, 2012I have decided to go down the MAPI / CDO or Winsock route in my application. Sending emails is easy enough. However, I need to retrieve and display emails. The slight twist in the tail is that I don't want to download / access all emails, just those from a certain sender's email address. Most users will have Outlook installed on the computer but i'd rather not rely on this unless I have to. I'm not sure which technology to use and how to go about this as I don't want to download all messages and then iterate through them. I'd rather just request emails with specific properties.
View 1 RepliesSending The Same Series Of Emails With MAPI In VB5 Produces Different Results?
Oct 15, 2009I am using VB5 on a Windows XP SP3 computer.I have an application that send emails to customers that have birthdays today and that bought a product from me today. If I run the application several times with the same search criteria with the same customers and the same date and time, I "may" or "may not" get the save Emails sent out.I am using a MAPI Signon prior to the birthday select and MAPI Signoff after the birthday select; another MAPI Signon prior to the sales today select and MAPI Signoff after the sales today select.I count the emails that are supposed to be produced in each select above and the counts are correct. It's the emails that may not agree with the counts.What could cause this?

C# - Set Style For An Application So All Controls Are Shown In Application's Color Scheme?
Feb 22, 2012I would like to set a style for an MDI WinForms application in .NET (mix of C# and VB.NET). I would like all panels and forms to be of a certain color. I would like textboxes to be of a certain color when readonly and of a different color when NOT readonly. I don't want to use defaults. Any pointers on how I can make this GLOBAL for any Form that is developed for this application? Am looking for a way so I don't have to do this logic in every form I create.
PREFERABLY: Don't want to switch to using any third-party tools. Would like to stick with just WinForms and standard .NET libraries.
Sending Multi-threaded SendEmail Request Returns General Mapi Failure
Mar 5, 2009I'm using the MAPI code by Dave Brooks.I am attempting to programatically send out a Crystal Report that is generated.When I run through the code without threading everything runs fine. The problem is when I use threading I get the return error "General MAPI failure [2]".I have never used threading before and understand that there are dangers involved. Can anyone provide any insight into this issue? NOTE: I've removed exception handling to make the code clearer.[code]
View 1 RepliesGenerated MAPI Mail Going To Outlook Instead Of Default Mail Client
May 7, 2009I have a piece of code which sends email with an attachment from my application. The code uses MAPI to send the email. It opens up a new email message so the user can add to the email message, and then the user clicks send.The code works fine. However there is one small problem. The email that the code opens, is always in Microsoft Outlook. Sometimes the application's user has Outlook Express set up as the default client, but my application always opens the new email message in Microsoft Outlook. (Outlook 2003. In the one user's machine that has Outlook 2007, everything works fine and the email opens up in Outlook Express.)As I searched for a solution, I saw this problem posed many times in various places on the Internet, with no solution (or none that worked). I did try several suggestions which involved creating registry settings and registering some dlls.

Making An Application That Uses Multiple WebBrowser Controls And Multiple Proxies?

Note: getRandomProxy gets a random proxy from a list.Problem is that whenever RefreshIESettings(getRandomProxy()) is applied, the proxy will be applied to all of the WebBrowsers, while i would need to have a unique proxy for each WebBrowser. Not having this would just error out the page in the other browsers and so on.

Manage A Large Number Of Similar Controls In A User Interface (such As Button Or TextBox Controls)
Aug 23, 2011There is newer code in a follow up post. I suggest using the code in the later post rather than the code in this one. You can still read this post though. When designing a user interface, one should be conscious of how many individual controls are required to implement the functionality. In some cases an initial design may begin with many buttons or textboxes (for example) but then further review of
the actual required functionality allows for a reduction in the number of unique controls.
But other times, there isn't a better way (which will still make sense to the user of the application) then to have a series of many repeated controls. So in the cases where one can be certain that the best UI implementation for an application will require the use of multiple copies of a given control, then it often becomes necessary to maintain some method of managing all of those controls at various points
throughout the application. Doing so typically requires that one build up some collection of controls which can then be accessed by index in order to work with any given control; but this can lead to a lot of clutter in the code file which handles these control's events. For instance there will be some kind of collection declaration, some recursive routine to find all of the controls of interest, and then any number of event handler methods with long lists of Handles clauses, or additional code loops to wire up the event handling for each control.
Purpose Since most of this functionality could be considered a requirement regardless of the type of control being managed, or its required functionality, it may make sense to wrap all of the control management functionality into a single class. And since our first requirement is a collection of controls, then a base collection class could be the perfect starting point for our control manager. There are a number of existing thread around this topic, with some recent (at the time of this writing) ones being:[URL]..In this, and related, threads I have posted examples of a simple TextBoxManager and ButtonManager control. But again, with so much similar functionality required regardless of the control being managed, it would be technically possible to create a generic ControlManager(Of T As Control) class which can manage any type of control.
[Code]...
So in summary, one can facilitate managing a large number of user interface controls by building a "control manager" class which both encapsulates the list of control instances, and deals with adding and removing defined event handlers for every control it manages. The generic control manager class itself can be inherited and extended into a more specific class on a per-application basis in order to provide more application-specific functionality.

Control Recommendations - Controls At The Top Of It And A Large DataGridView Is Docked Below All The Controls
Nov 10, 2011I have a maximized form that has controls at the top of it and a large DataGridView that is docked below all the controls. Its kind of like the Ribbon in MS Office. The controls cover about 1/4 of the screen at the top. I would like a way for the user to click a button to hide all the controls then automatically expand into the place the controls were so the user can view more data in the DataGridView and visa versa. For example, in MS Office Excel you can hide the ribbon by clicking a tiny button that has "^" on it.
I'm not very familiar with all the controls in Visual Studio so I would like to hear some recommendations. Is this situation ideal for a SplitContainer or ToolStripContainer or am I way off base here?
