Part of the application I'm working on for my client involves sending emails for events. Sometimes these are highly important. My client, and most of my client's clients, use Outlook, which has the ability to mark a mail message as High Importance. Now, I know it is callous to assume that all end users will be using the same interface, ...
As we all know, Outlook 2007 uses the Word 2007 rendering engine, causing endless grief when designing HTML email message. [Insert rant here] In particular, float, margin, and padding are - shall we say? - poorly supported. To simulate float so that text wraps around an image, apparently we can simply use: <img src="foo.png" align="ri...
I'm trying to do the following: We have an outlook plugin, written in .NET (and C++). It does various things, and is manually installed on the end users machines (usually via AD deployment or similar) We are changing our search to use a webpage-based search, but from within outlook. That part is ok, however we want to communicate from ...

An ASP.NET application (actually with Silverlight but it doesn't matter) is hosted in Outlook as folder home page. In this application there's a link to open popup window, which opens a separate IE window, not in Outlook. The problem is that in this case it seems that ASP.NET session is lost. A call to ASP.NET service has nothing in Ses...
I have a ClickOnce app that used to be run by users with Power User privileges. So to integrate to outlook (e.g. syncing of emails, appointments and addresses) I used a 3rd party component from Add-In Express, which includes an ActiveX DLL. So when the user would download my app, I'd register the ActiveX DLL (if it wasn't already regis...
Hi, I am having some issues creating a setup file for my Outlook 2007 add-in. The issue is that the Add-In needs to have a registry entry that references the manifest (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb386106.aspx). The project builds a manifest file that appears in my bin\debug folder. However, in my setup project, if I go a...
I'm doing something similar to this, but wondering if there is an event somewhere that I'm missing Store DefaultStore { get { var defaultStore = mOutlookApp_Model.Session.DefaultStore; if ( defaultStore.StoreID == mDefaultStore.StoreID ) { // the default store we s...
I have a contact management application written in Delphi which has a “Sync with Outlook” feature that I developed 10 years ago. Now, I’m going back to add some features and fix some bugs. This sync feature uses the Outlook object model to get started, but it has an optional mode called “Use MAPI Enhancements” where it uses pure MAPI t...

BTY: i assume the user is usi...
My application uses the Outlook object model. Outlook is an out-of-process COM server. Before Outlook 2007, if the user would close Outlook while my app had a reference to it, Outlook would stay running in a hidden state. In Outlook 2007, if the user closes Outlook, the process closes and my application receives a "RPC server is unava...
How can I ensure the contacts I add to an Outlook distribution list are displayed with both name and email address? These contacts may not exist in any other address book, just the distribution list. Currently they show up just as an email address (in both columns). Here's roughly the VBA we're using: Do Until RS.EOF //h...

(I am talking abt this conferencing add in: http://aspoc.net/archives/2008/...
This seems like a no-brainer but I couldn't find anything on it. How do I detect if a date variant in Outlook is "empty"? For example TaskItem.DueDate - the duedate is not necessarily filled. If it's not filled Outlook returns "4501.01.01." - I can test for this value, but this just doesn't seem "elegant" enough. Thanks! ...
Using Using VSTO 3.0 for Outlook 2007 I have my own item type derived from post called "IPM.Post.CustomType". However in the explorer window (the list of all items in a folder), the icon for my item is still the standard post item. How do I make my custom item show my custom icon instead of the standard icon in the explorer window? An...

Hi everybody, I'm decommissioning a meeting room scheduling [web] tool in favor of the same Outlook's functionality. I'd like, however, to publish (read-only) a "Group Schedule" view in a web page. To make the idea more clear: On Outlook's Calendar view, select Actions / View Group Schedules and then create a new group for say, Confere...
