We 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.
My app has some labels with email adresses, what i want to do is some kind of linklabel but instad of oppening an internet adress, i want it to open, for example, outlook, with the adress in the destination field (many programs does so), also, it would be fine if i can personalize a default email subject and text, but if i can open the program and put the adress i am already happy enough
View 21 RepliesUsing 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 1 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 olMail As Outlook.MailItem = olApp.CreateItem(Outlook.OlItemType.olMailItem)
I have written a program in which I have import

Application.Exit()
It show error

View 3 RepliesI'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

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.

View 3 RepliesI 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.
is there a way in vb.net to open microsoft outlook without knowing the file path exactly? different versions of outlook use different file locations, then you have to worry about the program files and program files(x86). is there a way to just launch outlook using the system.diagnostics.process.start("..") without the file path?

First good Monday to all and thanks for the suggestions on path I got it working somewhat.Problem: When a user clicks the comment button I would like outlook client to open so they can submit their comments. We run outlook client 2010 and exchange 2010 server. The Network Administrator is somewhat helpful but I am responsible for coding. Code specifics needed, did some research but not a lot of examples. I originally designed a cute little form with pages that folks could view to answer questions about how to use office software, the boss saw it and now they want more.
View 4 RepliesI have made a little programme where the user can put in a name to search for a contact.The matches then fill a Datagrid and the user can then choose the one they want and the programm then opens the contact form (from outlook client)The Contact form opens ok, and it brings up the correct contact. If the user then selects the option to "Email" from that from I then get the error message"A Dialog is open" etc...
My code is as follows
Sub GetContact()
Dim objOutlook As Outlook.Application
Dim objNS As Outlook.NameSpace
[code]....
It seems to be due to Outlook being open or opening?
Im trying to prepare outlook message (with prefilled subject, attachment etc.) and open it for the user in outlook.
Outlook is 2007, Win 7.0.
Problem is, that I cannot instantiate Outlook.Application. Everytime it fall with ActiveX error (cannot create instance) or CLS ID identifier is invalid.
I tried (as reference have outlook 12 and office 12 object library)
Dim objOutlook As New Outlook.Application - CLS ID error
objOutlook = CreateObject("Outlook.Application") - ActiveX error
objOutlook = CreateObject("Outlook.Application", "localhost") - ActiveX error
I found a lot of threads in net, but nothing works for me (always same error on PCs of other developers too).
I couldn't find an appropriate forum which would suit the type of problem I am facing so I am putting it here.I needed to create an intranet web application that has pages with hyperlinks to eml files. The eml files as is known are email files in MIME format which outlook express can open. However what I found was if eml files are on your machine, it opens in outlook express but when opened as an hyperlink, it opens in Internet Explorer (IE) as an mhtml file. And any attachments that may be in the eml file are not displayed at all!I didn't understand why IE has to poke inbetween. After searching the net, I came across a solution that required changes in the Registry of the client machine.The change is to be made to the node HKEY_CLASSES_ROOTMIMEDatabaseContent Typemessage/rfc822.The following is a REG file that can be imported for this change.[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOTMIMEDatabaseContent ypemessage/rfc822]"extension"=".eml""CLSID"=""However after this change, though eml files opened in Outlook express, MHT files stopped opening in IE.Then I simply deleted the rfc822 node and to my surprise, MHT files opened in IE and eml files opened in outlook express and everything was fine!!But I don't want to use this sledge hammer solution. I want to know what this registry key is for and how can I set it to achieve what I want . i.e. open eml files from web pages in outlook express without affecting other file types
