StatusStrip And MenuBar "Chromed" Like Outlook 2007
Jun 25, 2010
in Outlook 2007, the Menu and Status bars appear to be "chromed"/gradient-filled.
On a Windows XP box, these appear flat in the VS IDE. Any way to get the "chromed" look of these bars in XP without the whole "inherit and do it yourself" approach?
I'm trying to convert an outlook 2007 add in to an outlook 2010 add in, but I'm running into some problems. One such example is finding the 2010/.net 4.0 replacement for:
I am currently trying to read from outlook 2007 and load into a datagridview however it always crashes when it reach the 28th email on my outlook. Wondering if it's because it was a long email?
Error : "Unable to cast COM object of type 'System.__ComObject' to interface type 'Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.MailItem'. This operation failed because the QueryInterface call on the COM component for the interface with IID
I have an app that i would like to launch outlook 2007 automatically from VB2005 and insert the To, CC, Subject, Message Body and add an attachment to. Everything works great except outlook ignores the attachment completely - the file exists in the correct location - what am I missing?
I'm writing an application that displays a calendar; when you click a date on the calendar, it should display a window listing the appointments for that day.
How can this be done in VB.Net? I can find code to add appointments to a calendar, but not to do this.
I am having an issue with my program that I hope you can help with. I have integrated my program to work with Outlook and I have installed the 2003 Primary Interop Assemblies on the client computer and it works fine (i.e. opens Outlook Email and attaches a file from my program). Well, we have many computers here that run Office 2007, so I installed the 2007 PIA on their computer and it doesnt work. It doesnt tell you anything in the error when the update download fails, just "You need to contact your system administrator". Is there anything else I need to do to get it to work with computers running Office 2007 - any references I need to add, or properties needing changed?
I know the isnt any issue with the server, connectivity, or anything like that because it works just fine on computers without Office 2007.
I am using VB.Net (.Net 4) and Outlook 2007 (Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook) to send mass emails to clients on a monthly basis and the text is pre-defined into a HTML file which is parsed.Since there are chances of errors, we are putting it as outlook templates. But we need to put some special tags in the body, for which I want to put a button in the main ribbon of the "MailItem" object (see attached image).I have managed to put the buttons in the "add-ins" menu but I want it right there in the front area.
I have written Outlook Add-in which opens an our http link to do some important work. It is working fine but has some inconsistencies and performance issue with it. Though my code does cleanup, after few invocations of that link from my Add-in toolbar button, Outlook gets non-responsive for few seconds and then it comes back to normal but doesn't open http link.

I am using Access 2007 as an automation server for a custom form in Outlook 2007. I am trying to use the records in an Access table as a rowsource for a Outlook combobox. I have been debugging it quite a bit; I can tell that I successfully grab a recordset and can tell that they are the correct values. The only problem is when I try to add an item to my combobox (cboCategory).I checked the properties of the additem function and it expects a variant, so that's what I give it. However at runtime, it gives me a type mismatch error.

I am new to VBScript.My organization uses Outlook 2007.I have an email template that I would like everyone at the organization to use.When a user sends an email using this template, their default signature is automatically added to the end of the template (after the HTML template content).Instead, I would like each user's default signature to appear above the template content.How can I use VBScript to dictate the position of the user's default email signature?I tried this code with no success:[code]
I have an Oulook AddIn project to which I would like to add a functionality to be able to drag an email item into a folder in Outlook's Main Folder Pane. I would like to have the folder in which an item is dropped into to recognige the new item and pop up a message.
I would like to know what events to use to achiev this task.
Today i added the following method in office outlook 2007 visual basic IDE for 'ThisOutlookSession'.Private Sub Application_ItemSend(ByVal Item As Object, Cancel As Boolean)
Dim strSubject As String strSubject = Item.Subject If Len(Trim(strSubject)) = 0 Then
i was wondering if someone could give me the final explanation on what i might be doing wrong here.I spent a lot of time reading around the net and the forum about how to add Threading capabilities to a VB project.
Nos, i've got .NET 4 installed, and i've added the system.tsr and mscorlib.dll files as reference in, say, Excel 2007 (see screenshot).However, when i try to make a thread with anything as basic as "Dim Thread1 As System.Threading.Thread", i get a user-defined type not found error.Indeed, when i use the object browser to see what's in the System file, theres nothing remotely linked to any Threading, and in the mscorlib file, nothing under "Threading" either, just a few Thread related functions, but nothing defining a data type

I am used to working with menubars in v2003 and before and could merge menu items with no problem. I used the code below in combination with merge order settings in the menu bar and it worked great. Now using Menustrips, I find my code does not want to convert since there are Items in the menustrip and menuitems in the menu bars.
'Determine if a Menu exists. Public Function DoMenuExist(ByVal mnuItem As String) As Boolean Dim itm As MainMenu
[code]....
I need to merge a child menustrip into the parent menustrip when the user opens a module from clicking an item in the parent menustrip item.
We have localized our application menubar(Ex: Spanish language).The menubar menuitems have few shortcut keys i.e CTRL + N along with the text. The shortcut key is diplaying in some dummy character.We want the menuitem (Ex: New File CTRL+ N) text in local language and CTRL+ N should display as English
cMenuBar.Font = New Font(Configfontname, Configfontsize) strMenuText = rsManager.GetString("cbmNewFold") cbmNewFold = New CommandBarButton(ilToolbar20.Images.Item(0), strMenuText, New
I need to create a menu bar (similar to VB6) for my ASP.NET application.
What I don't need is a standard navigation menu bar (plenty of those out there). I'm not redirecting to a different page. What i do need is a menubar that will behave similarly to a VB6 menu, or ASP.NET button control. I have to postback and execute some VB code (depending on what menu item the user selected).
In VB 2010 after working on a form in design mode which has a menustrip and the form is taller than the IDE [Design] window and not returning to the top of the window before running in debug mode, the menu is eliminated from the menubar on the running form when the controlbox is set to False for the form and I could not access the menu.After returning to design mode and scrolling to the top of the form and running debug, the menu returned.Is this a bug in the IDE or what?
