Currently I am doing a project that requires me to "listen" for new emails coming in MS Outlook. I have code that currently works to do everything else with the emails, but I'm not sure of the API/VB code (this is MS Access 2010 which uses VBA 7.0 running on a 64-Bit Windows machine) that will listen for new emails.
View 3 RepliesI am trying to setup a system where a screen will show all the mailboxes in an outlook system and show all the unread msgs in each mailbox inbox this will need to get the time the msg arrived so this can be checked against service level agrements.what is the best way to go about this i was thinking of having an xml file that would have the mail boxes in and the SLA time it has to be answered by so when it has not been answered it changes color.its mainly how to have it check the many mailboxes inbox i was looking at mapi but heard that the notification only works on the main default mailbox.

View 4 RepliesI 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 get an error. It's work fine, when outlook is not running.
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?

Let's say I'm making a calendar program and I want to leave it open all day. When 2pm rolls around I want it to tell me I have a meeting in 5 minutes...how would I go about this? Do I have to have a sub that's constantly running and slowing down my comp or is there a function/better way that is going to surprise me?
View 1 RepliesI've been thinking about this problem for a while now and I'm still not sure what is the best approach.Basically I've got several hundred email addresses stored in a Database, and every week I would like to automatically send these addresses a bulletin of information. I've accomplished this with a Stored Procedure and a Scheduled Job on the DB (Oracle), but I'm sure this could be achieved better with some VB.net solution.I've read about people writing a Windows Service, or creating a Console Application and using Windows scheduler. I'm swaying to wards the Windows Service approach but I'm not sure how to tell the service to send emails at a specific time every week. Any ideas, or is there a better approach?Also, what would be best? Send individual emails to the addresses in the emailing list, or send one email with every address added as a BCC?
View 2 RepliesI have a program created that allows users to enter reminders in a text box, where they choose a date on a DateTimePicker, and hit an "Add" button. This then adds the date and time the reminder was created to a table in SQL Server 2005.However, when they click the "Add" button for a reminder to be added on today's date, its only adding it to tomorrow.

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.

View 3 RepliesI am creating a program that allows a person to enter details about their farm, stock, and machinery in order to electronically keep track of all of the information. I have created the forms and done all the coding for the data entry, and now what I would like to do is allow the user to delete a single record from the .dat file. I am able to delete it from the LstBox (using a "Delete Entry" btn coded simply with
lstvehicles.Items.RemoveAt(lstvehicles.SelectedIndex)
(using the vehicles section for examples)), but I am unsure of how to delete it from the .dat file as well, to prevent it reloading upon data change / program reload. Also I would like to be able to have a reminder come up on the program start up that gives a reminder to (in the vehicles instance)when a vehicles rego is due, the date being associated to a date that is entered into the same lstbox data using a datetimepicker.
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.

Does anyone know if this is possible:
1. Create VB9 application that monitors an Outlook Inbox.
2. When an email from a particular recipient is received, open the attachment (Excel.xls)
3. When the attachment opens, a macro is executed and the sheet is re-formatted (have already coded this bit in VBA).
4. Save the re-formatted sheet, re-attach to an email and send.
As mentioned, I have already done 3 and I have done 4 in other applications. What I am unsure how to tackle are points 1 and 2.
Has anyone had any experience with something along these lines?
