I'm developing an application and when the application is open, I need to handle the mailto protocol. I'm thinking the best way is have the app change the HKEY_CLASSES_ROOTmailtoshellopencommand registry key when it opens and change it back when it closes.
View 2 Replieshow to send mail via .net. However I do not seemlessly want to send the mail. I want a new mail message to open and I want to attach a file that i will export from crystal. So in short, It should use outlook on the client pc, open new mail, and add attachment. The user can then type custom message, and type email addresses.

I have a page that is based on a Master Page. The page has AJAX contolled tabs and on one tab I have 2 panels, each with 1 button. Only 1 panel is visible at a time. I am trying to get the button on the visible panel to be the DefaultButton so that when Enter is pressed the click event is fired off. The issue that I am having is that I get this error no matter what I try: The DefaultButton of 'form1' must be the ID of a control of type IButtonControl.I have tried setting the Default Button property of the panel to the buttons client id and to its unique id.

I want to create a simple page that allows our Admins to select all the users in a district and then create an Email in their Default Email Program for example Outlook so they can edit it from there.

View 1 RepliesIs there a way to make a program in vb that can handle mailto links so for example it can be set as a default mail client:
if you go to a website and click on a mailto link then the vb program will open (like how you can set outlook to open when a mailto link is clicked), the mailto link will then go to a new message form where the to address of the mailto link will be placed in a textbox ..
Scenario: We are using a createwizard control to create users for our website. When the user has an email we simply send the user the email with their username and password saying their account has been created. Using MailMessage and SMTPClient.
Problem: When the user doesn't have an email (ex. temp employee, student) I need to be able to generate the email but have it open via the creator's mail client so that they can enter in an email themselves/see the username and password. Similar to @mailto functionality. Question: Is there a way to do this from the code behind? I have tried searching but everywhere is telling me to use MailMessage and SMTPClient which I don't need.
i have tried various ways to accomplish this, but to no avail. I don't know how to generate the replacement text (mailto link) so I just used a bunch of x's until I can figure it out. Here is what I have (which currently not replacing emails in string): Here is my Code behind:
[Code]...
Outlook is causing some problems when being passed a mailto string with accented characters in it. Changing the codepage for my entire webpage that has this string on it solves this problem, but that causes other problems in the system, so I would not like to do that.
A string like such returns a lot of garbage characters:
"mailto:Helpdesk-someemail@email.com?subject=Mon bâtiment / Départementé / Bureau n'est pas répertorié"
Meanwhile, this cuts off the character after the "D"
"mailto:someemail@email.com?subject=Mon bâtiment / Départementé / Bureau n'est pas répertorié"
I 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.
View 4 RepliesThe MaskedEditExtender control that I am using is set up for a MaskType="DateTime" and the AcceptAMPM="true" but I need to know how a user can change the am/pm without having to type in A for AM and P for PM? Is there a way I can add arrows or something to this control so that it is more user-friendly when changing from AM to PM? My users aren't going to know that they need to type out the value for it to change.

I am inheriting my own DataGridView (say MyDataGridView) from the standard DataGridView control. What I want is that certain properties of MyDataGridView should have a different default value than what its base have. For example, AllowUserToAddRows, AllowUserToDeleteRows, AllowUserToResizeRows properties should have the default values of False; so that when I drag MyDataGridView into a form in the IDE, the default values shown in the properties grid should be False. Later on, if I want to change them to True from the grid, they will be set accordingly.
