I'm wondering if there is a way of programmatically opening an Outlook Shortcut from my addin.I've created the shortcut as follows
Sub AddShortcut()
Dim myOlBar As Outlook.OutlookBarPane
Dim myolGroup As Outlook.OutlookBarGroup
Dim myOlShortcuts As Outlook.OutlookBarShortcuts
[code]....
I'm guessing I need to use InvokeMember in some way
myOlShortcuts("MSHomepage").GetType().InvokeMember(..)
But when I use GetType().GetMethods() I can't see any Click members or something similar.
I'm writing my program in VB.Net,Part of my program is supposed to create a .eml file containing either an xml or a pdf file or both as attachments. Prior to writing this program, I had never seen what a .eml file looks like, let alone an .eml file with attachments(I never used any of the outlooks), so I got someone to send me an email containing both these attachments and save the .eml file, so I could use this as a template in my own program.However, I noticed that the pdf file, after having been attached, is a huge string of letters(see below). Probably some sort of encoding. My problem is, my program is going to be creating several different pdf files and adding them as attachments to .eml files. How do I encode the different pdf files into a similar huge string of text as the one below? Or am I going about this the wrong way? What would be an alternative way to do this? Because having to encode that long string of text seems like it would be a very daunting task.[code]

I have a sql file that i need to use with Visual Basic, im assuming i have to install it as i had to do that with a different sql file, the only difference between the sql file i have now and the other one i had is that the one i need to use with VB has only an sql file and does not have a database file that goes with it, this one is only an sql file. I have opened the file in SQL server management studio express and executed it over and over and it says (1 row(s) affected) (I have attached a screenshot) but nothing happens. If you look in the screenshot, on the left hand side you can see the "Pubs" database, that was the other sql file i had that had a database with it and it installed fine. Im really not sure what else to do with this.

I created a vb.net application that reads a data file (SQL table) and creates contacts and groups from this data. If I run this application and point the Contact folder to my local Outlook folders, the application runs fine. It creates about 550 contact and 10 groups. My problem is when I go to run the application against a public folder that am the "owner" of with full permissions it will run fine until it hits items 250 and then I get a COM error.
