anthony Posted August 18, 2002 Posted August 18, 2002 I was wondering if anybody would know how to open specific messages in outlook express from within a Vb .net desktop program. The program would scan all the messages in outlook and only open tonyf.com attachments. I have the vb .net standard edition so Im not sure about the message queue capabilities etc,even though you would probably just use those on a network. I know how to send messages in a web application by importing the system.web.mail class,but its a desktop application Im concerned about. Thanks Quote
*Gurus* Thinker Posted August 18, 2002 *Gurus* Posted August 18, 2002 You can't access Outlook Express from VB6, so I doubt it will work from VB.Net either. If it were the regular OutLook, there is an object library, and it should be possible to reference it from VB.Net. Quote Posting Guidelines
anthony Posted August 18, 2002 Author Posted August 18, 2002 You would think you would be able to access it,or at least send a mail attachement to a text folder.I dont know what you mean by "regular outlook"? Thanks anyway Quote
*Gurus* Thinker Posted August 18, 2002 *Gurus* Posted August 18, 2002 Regular Outlook is one of the Office suite apps. Outlook Express is just a mail/newsreader addin for IE. It doesn't have an OLE/ ActiveX library in it (or if it does, it is a hidden, private one). Quote Posting Guidelines
