I have some code that locates all the contact folders that a user has access to by iterating through the Application.Session.Stores collection.This works for the user's contacts and also all the public contacts folders. It also finds all the contacts folders in additional mailbox accounts that the user has added via the Tools -> Account Settings... menu command.
However, this requires the user to have full access to the other person's account. When a user only has access to another person's contacts, then that person's contacts show up under the "People's Contacts" group in the Contacts view. How do I find those contact folders that don't show up under Session.Stores?
In order to see the other user's contacts folder without adding access to their full mailbox, click File -> Open -> Other User's Folder... from the Outlook menu. In the dialog box, enter the other user's name and select Contacts from the Folder type drop down list.
Here's the code (minus the error checking and logging) I'm using to find a list of all the user's Outlook contact folders. I know this can (and maybe should) be done using early binding to the Outlook.Application type, but that doesn't affect the results. EnumerateFolders is recursive so that it searches all sub folders.
Dim folderList = New Dictionary(Of String, String)
Dim outlookApp = CreateObject(Class:="Outlook.Application")
For Each store As Object In outlookApp.Session.Stores
EnumerateFolders(folderList, store.GetRootFolder)

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.

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.

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?
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 RepliesIm 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 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

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.

Can someone either provide me with the code to do this or a good "recent" link with a tutorial?

Notice that there are no DOB record for some people in the tables, so these shall not be included. The DOB column has record like this 1982-10-24 10:12:45 AM because it's a DateTime column.
