Referencing Outlook - Import A Reference On The COM Tab?
Apr 14, 2009
I have a program that has a button with text of "Email". When the user clicks this button I would like my application to check to see if the user has Microsoft Outlook installed on their system, and, if so, to open it up with the email address populated from a field within my form.I'm having several problems.I just basically don't know where to begin.I've searched the internet some, but couldn't find much that begins where I need to begin.Firstly, I _don't_ have Outlook installed on my computer that I am developing the application from.This is probably why, when I go to Import a Reference on the COM tab, that I cannot find the Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook item.Then, based on what I have read elsewhere, I would do the following:
Dim objOutlook As Outlook.Application
But then I'm not quite sure the code to call up Outlook, although I bet I could find it if I could just get over that first hurdle.

I have founf Linked tables does the same automatically. But then if the appliaction runs on the other system then will that linked table work?As the linked tables is synchronised for my outlook. Is there any way to make this generalised, so that linked table concept can be used?

I would like to automatically create an Outlook rule (move email containing something in subject to folder xyz) but dont know how to achieve this. Of course I can create the rule and export it to a .rwz file. This file can be imported manually, but how can I import it automatically?
Can I import a rule through my VSTO 2005 Outlook (2003) Addin? Or can I create the rule from within this addin?

Lets say that I had three TextBox's and they are named TextBox1, TextBox2, and TextBox3, is there a way to do like TextBox And Rand(1,3).Text = Nothing? Something similar to this where you click a button and it will choose at randomly a textbox to clear?I know I could do like Dim Number = Rand(1,3)if Number = 1 Then TextBox1.Text = Nothingend ifif Number = 2 Then TextBox1.Text = Nothingend ifor use else if and such, but I have 12 different textbox's, not three, so, I want to shorten the code, if you could do something like TextBox And Rand(1,12).Text = Nothing that would defenitely be way shorter, can you do anything like that to put together "TextBox" and the number to reference the control? I am not looking to use the full controls list to search for the right control nor to make an array that contains the controls, I just want to reference them without adding extra arrays or searhing for them.

This is strange. I tried to create a new project to reference the Outlook Object Library, but I can't get the code references to work. Here's what I'm doing:
Quote:# Start Microsoft Visual Studio .NET.# On the File menu, point to New, and then click Project.# Click Visual Basic Projects under Project Types, and then click Console Application under Templates. By default, Module1.vb is created.# Add a reference to the Microsoft Outlook 12.0 Object Library. To do this, follow these steps:
1. On the Project menu, click Add Reference. 2. Click the COM tab. 3. Click Microsoft Outlook 12.0 Object Library, and then click Select 4. Click OK. If you are prompted to generate wrappers for the library that you selected, click Yes.
# In the Code window, replace the default code with the following code:

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.

I've spent a long time bashing my head against my desk and an even longer time trying to get directX to work with vb.net. I've downloaded the June 2010 SDK and installed. I cannot import the directx reference, and it does not even show up in the add references popup. even when manually going into the c:program filesMicrosoft DirectX SDK (June 2010) and search every folder for the correct file it does not exist. What the hell. I'm running Visual Studio 2010 Pro. this is the most frustrating thing.

We are trying to write an application that uses the NServiceBus library in a VB.NET environment. We've been stymied by errors similar to the following: Reference required to assembly 'NServiceBus,Version=2.0.0.1071, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=9fc386479f8a226c' containing the implemented interface 'NServiceBus.IMessageHandler`1'. Add one to your project.Our project already includes references to NServiceBus.dll and NServiceBus.Core.dll from the same NServiceBus 2.0 RC2 distribution.

Any ideas about how to solve this problem? (And, yes, my preferred solution is switching to C#, but no, that's not an acceptable one at the moment.)

I have a standalone aspx with vb.net backend file. I need to import google api referance in this file. If i put this file in a asp.net application project, the referance gets imported easily by using "add referance". But when i use a standalone file, the referance cannot be imported.
How can i import this google api referance (or any referance) in an aspx file without having to make a project for it?[code]...

I'm trying to implement the XACT engine in a VB.NET project. I'm pretty new to this stuff, but I can set up and use the normal DirectX libraries fine. However, I can't for the life of me work out how to set up/reference/import/include/whatever the XAudio2 and XACT libraries. All the dlls in the Aug2009 DX SDK say they can't be used as references in the project, and the only tutorials I can find are in C++ and use the .h headers, which, if I'm not mistaken, I can't use at all for VB.
I'm tearing my hair out over this because there literally seems to be no way that I can find to use the new sound stuff in VB! I'm imagining MS wouldn't actually allow that to be the case, so if someone can tell me what basic thing I'm doing wrong.

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.

In Visual Studio 10 - Visual Basic, why can't I import "System.Drawing" when my only reference is "System"? I can import "System.Runtime.InteropServices".To reproduce my problem:
1. Create a New Project in Visual Studio 10 with Visual Basic Class Library template.
2. Add "Imports System.Drawing" and "Imports System.Runtime.InteropServices" at the beginning.
3. Remove all references except "System" in the References pane of the project properties.
Result:Visual Studio cannot find "System.Drawing" but it can find "System.Runtime.InteropServices". "System.Drawing" is fully qualified so the system should be able to find it inside the referenced "System".
Thoughts:It appears "System" and "System.Drawing" are distinct namespaces (or containers?) so why doesn't qualification "." work? Does "." represent something else? "System" is also in "mscorlib" but is that the namespace which is used or is it another?"Microsoft.VisualBasic" is also listed in the imported namespaces but there is not a reference to it. How was it found? Where is the "Imported namespaces" list populated from?I have been looking through it for a while but cannot understand why "System.Drawing" is not imported.

I am opening frmB (variable for FormB - the actual form) from frmA. From btn1 I open frmB like this:
frmB = New FormB()
frmB.Show()
From btn2 (frmB is already open) I bring frmB to the front from behind frmA:
FormB.Show()
FormB.BringToFront().
No problem so far. Now I need to pass an arg to frmB. This is where I am having the problem.
from btn1 (in frmA) I do this:
frmB = New FormB(myArg) '--pass myArg to constructor of FormB -- no problem here
frmB.Show()
then from btn2 -- this is where I have the problem
FormB.Show()
FormB.BringToFront()
I tried placing myArg in FormB.Show(myArg) but that did not fix the problem. What is the correct way to pass myArg to FormB (frmB) in this scenario? Do I need to share FormB or frmB? How do I do this? "frmB" is frmA level variable.
