IDE :: Automating Outlook From .NET?
Mar 26, 2010
i am using the following code to send e-mails, I am using this cause various other methods though sucessful, were not compatible. My earlier code was compatible with Outlook 2003 and used to crash at machines with Outlook 2007. i know you can add a reference to Outloo 2007 office files. but the following code is version independent, but i am not able to pre-populate the various outlook fields such as the To: , Cc: ,BCc:, Subject and Body. and i am not able to Launch Outlook for the user to actually see the display.
Dim outlookApp As Object
Dim outlookNamespace As Object
Dim newMailItem As Object

I have written a code in VB.NET using "Microsoft Outlook 11.0 Object Library" to create an appointment, task or contact in Outlook. Now the problem is once i create an appointment, task or contact from my VB.NET code and then if i open these item in outlook and modifies and save the content (like body of an appointment) then the lastmodification time of these item doesn't gets modified. It always shows the previous lastmodification time. This happens only for those item which got created from my VB.NET code.
I have tried realsing the COM object in my VB.NET Code.

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.

I'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?

My mailbox regularly gets emails from people wanting to promote their events. Usually the subject line looks like this:
fwd: come to *TMC* meeting this weekend, <5/19/2012 @ 1300 >
I need a script to read the date, then make an appointment on my outlook calendar, using that date, time and term (TMC) as the meeting title. So it should make an appointment on 5/19/2012 at 1pm, called "TMC meeting"All appointments are 2 hours by default.I used The identifiers "*" and "<>" as an example, and can be changed to be whatever, what is important is that the meeting gets on my calendar with the correct title.

I have an ASP.NET web form that reads a file and writes some data to a database. I need to run this process on a scheduled basis.
Currently, I have a scheduled task that calls a batch file. The batch file then opens Internet Explorer and navigates to the URL and the process is fired. There is another scheduled batch file that closes Internet Explorer.

We have bid on a large installation and if we get it we will need to set up 300-400 router like devices very quickly. To set one up now we connect to the device with a serial cable, run Putty on the windows PC, log in to the device, and run some commands on it to load the latest firmware and change some settings. I'd like to reduce this to connect the router to the pc with the serial cable and press a button on a vb program. The program would launch Putty, login and execute the commands. Sendkeys might work but it would be best if the VB program could read the responses that were coming back to an extent so I wouldn't have to program in really long pauses to insure actions had completed before doing something else.

I have developed a VB.Net application to automate Word and I am noticing some issues when I attempt to close a document and subsequently Word. So I have decided to do the following - - ->
I check to see if Word is running on the local PC. If it is not, then I instaniate Word, execute code, close the document and quit Word. If Word is already running I want to be able to use that instance of Word, execute code, close out the active document and NOT close Word. I have retrieved the Process ID for Word running on the local PC but am not sure how I can use Word's properties and methods on an existing instance.

Since installing Windows 7 on one of my test machines my automated uninstaller can not find the uninstall string. My script works on XP just fine. I noticed that the uninstall information is in a different location for Windows 7. it is in Wow6432NodeMicrosoft... is there a constant I can use that will allow my script find the correct uninstall location on both Windows 7 and Windows XP?

I have written an application using VB 2005 Express. It's a very simple application. There are basically two listboxes, one to the left and the other one to the right of the GUI.Listbox1 contains a list of names. When you double-click each name, a code word is created and added to the listbox on the right. Now... here is what I want to do. I would like to automate the double-clicking process with the click of a button so that each name on listbox1 is double-clicked in sequence

I have some code that is supposed to automate a textbox on a webpage. The problem is, it only works half of the time. The text either displays or does not display. I added the internet controls as a reference but the HTML object library would not get added. Everytime i would go to do this, it would freeze.I also tried doing it two ways. The way that is commented out, always produced a null error. If i change the website to google.com, it works perfect everytime.[code]

I'm a systems analyst and the company I work for likes to automate as much as they can. Recently I've been getting a lot of questions like "can we automate this in any way?" and I have no idea. I've done automation for Word, Excel, adobe reader and a terminal viewer they use but that was mostly done with code already written by some one else here. If there is a program you want to automate, do you just go to the programs website and hope they have a developers section or is there a standard way to use program dlls for automation? I'd also like some good resources on COM objects if anyone has some, I believe that is how most automation is done, correct?

I have a program, and writes data to a text file... with a template inside...
All works fine, and saves fine...
I'm wondering, how could I automate the filename it saves?
Currently it saves the text file as NewOrder.txt
I would like it to now realise that there is a NewOrder.txt already there, and save as NewOrder1.txt
Then when the program is closed, and I go to do a new one, it will say ok NewOrder2.txt
Hoping this is possible, I've been reading up on my.settings but I can't really find what I'm looking for...
