Open Outlook Message With Prefilled Subject, Attachment And Recipient?
Jun 11, 2012
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 want to open the outlook from my vb.net application. I want to fill out the To,Subject, Body and Attachment part of mail through my application. here i don't need to send mail . I want to just open the outlook with mail parameter.
I would like to create an outlook message with a subject and some attachments for the user to send when they are ready. I have the file paths for the attachments.
Basically the user needs to click a button on the application and that open an outlook message window with a predefined message and a few attachments. They should then be able to modify and add the required "To" etc before sending via outlook.
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've a scenario in which user can make a selection from a grid (having uploaded files on local folder) and when user press "send", application should open Outlook "New mail message" window having selected files as attachments (which user selected from grid).
Automagically enter the distribution name in the To field and PersonA, PersonB in the CC field, the Subject and the Body all prefilled and, hopefully the user's signiture so that all the user has to do is click on send?
I am currently developing an SMS application to read and receive SMS. I run the application and tried to send an SMS and the application indicates that the message is successfully sent. However the recipient did not receive the SMS. I am using Sony Ericsson T610 btw.

I'm getting error 'At least one recipient is required, but none were found.' when I tried running a VB script that calls a DLL to get details from database and send report to user. I tried to print the error number, source and description which is -2147220980, CDO.Message.1 and At least one recipient is required, but none were found.
I am working on a project in which I have to integrate Ms outlook with it. I am able to send mail but, facing problem when I am trying to send a unique Id with that mail by linking it in subject field so that I can fetch the reply with that unique Id only. But when the user reply me back that subject field become editable and that id may be erased by the user. Can I attach or link any id to ms outlook for sending mail and retrieving mail with same id.
Im using Outlook Automation to parse through a PST file, and Im having trouble checking attachment types. Im attempting to check the attachment to see if it is a MailItem, but its not working, heres the syntax that I'm using.
Dim msgAttch As Outlook.Attachment If msgAttch.Class = Outlook.OlObjectClass.olMail Then 'Check MailItem End If
I have an image in my VB.NET Picture box. I would like to attach it to the email message I'm sending through Outlook without having to save it to the drive anywhere. Is it possible to do such a thing?
Here's what I have so far (taken from here):
Public Class email Dim app As Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.Application Dim appNameSpace As Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook._NameSpace
[Code].....
When I comment out the attachment line it works perfectly fine, otherwise it throws a COMError. I haven't been able to find any real good information about attaching an email that way, or if it's even possible. If I can't do it this way I plan on just saving the file to some random(ish) name in C:TEMP, but it would be nicer if I didn't have to worry about that.
<VB.Net 2008> I am trying to take a screenshot and use it as an attachment of outlook email.Is it possible to do that thru vb application when I click a button?
I need to know how I can use VB2008 to check a pop3 email inbox and only download a certain message with a specific subject line.I have looked and looked and cant seem to find anything.
I'm having trouble figuring out how to do this. I'm using VS2010, and am writing an app that must allow a user to drag an attachment from an Outlook e-mail onto a listbox and have the listbox populated with the contents of the file. It would just be a text file containing filenames, one per line.
I want to do drag and drop with an email attachment (Outlook). The DragDrop event handler comprises the following lines of code If e.Data.GetDataPresent("FileGroupDescriptor") Then Dim ms As System.IO.MemoryStream = CType(e.Data.GetData("FileGroupDescriptor"), System.IO.MemoryStream)which should be the beginning for retrieving the name of the file to be dropped. -- BUT, after executing the second line, ms is Nothing and stream operations (seek or read) with ms fail. Why? How can ms be Nothing if e.Data.GetDataPresent("FileGroupDescriptor") was True?
I was wondering if anyone knew a way to have vb extract an attachment from an outlook email and save it to a specified directory. What I have is a program that when a file (outlook attachment) is dropped onto the main form it saves that file to a specific directory. I have the following code which seems to work for anything other than Outlook (possibly because outlook's drag and drop feature is defined differently?):
Code: Private Sub Form1_DragDrop(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.DragEventArgs) Handles MyBase.DragDrop Try
I spent hours on Google and forums searching for a way to generate a new email with attachment, but none of the solutions worked. Button in VB Form opens a new email window with attached file I specified
I would like to create an Outlook message with most of the text filled and the user just has to click send. I rather have the user click Send than for the program to send the message automatically. The below code doesn't work. What modifications does it need?
Dim objSmtpMail As System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient Dim Attachment As System.Net.Mail.Attachment Dim Mailmsg As New System.Net.Mail.MailMessage
What I would like to do is allow the user to click a button which will open their default email program (e.g. outlook, windows live mail, etc) and create a new email with an attachment (from io.stream) ready for them.
I have a data from database (from, to, cc, bcc, subject, body, sent_date, attachment). How can i create Outlook message file (*.msg) to adding thoes records?
I am using Visual Basic 2005 and I am trying to put RichTextBox1 formatted text into Outlook Message body. I got code (see below)
Dim OutApp As Object Dim OutMail As Object OutApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application") OutApp.Session.Logon() OutMail = OutApp.CreateItem(0) [Code] .....
I tried putting below line but I don't get formatted text in the Message body .HtmlBody = RichTextBox1.Text
When I changed above line with below I got all the formatting in Message body but I also had extra things like strange code line on top and funny characters in between the text .HtmlBody = Clipboard.GetText(TextDataFormat.Html)
We have a vendor that sends CSV files as email attachments. These CSV files contain statuses that are imported into our application. I'm trying to automate the process end-to-end, but it currently depends on someone opening an email, saving the attachment to a server share, so the application can use the file.Since I cannot convince the vendor to change their process, such as offering an FTP location or a Web Service, I'm stuck with trying to automate the existing process.
programmatically open an email from a POP3 account and extract an attachment? The preferred solution would reside on a Windows 2003 server, be written VB.NET and secure. The application can reside on the same server as the POP3 server, for example, we could setup the free POP3 server that comes with Windows Server and pull against the mail file stored on the file system.
I have a number of files that are generated in a function defined as:[code]These files are immediately printed and the files are automatically saved to a directory; the files themselves are not for use by the actual software users. I timestamp the files to keep them uniquely identified for auditing purposes.I've now received a requirement to email some of these files externally to the company, and someone has complained that the current filenames are not user-friendly.So, I tried copying the generated file to a temp directory, with a friendlier name, emailing the friendlier file, then deleting it, leaving my audit trail intact, like so: [code]This throws a System.IO.IOException on the line System. IO.File. Delete (friendly FilePath) because the file is still in use, after it has been emailed.I've taken out the email code, which makes the copying and deleting work fine, so it's apparently attaching the file to the email which causes the problem.I've also tried breakpointing before the delete line, waiting five minutes, confirming the email has been sent, then advancing the code, but the same exception is still thrown.
