Displaying Root Outlook Folders Using CDO with VB.NET

[masj78]

Using CDO Library 1.21 and VB.NET I am trying to create in my Application the Root folder view of Outlook, using a TreeView.

My variables are as follows:

 

Dim objStore As MAPI.InfoStore

Dim objFolder As MAPI.Folder

Dim nodStore AS MSComctLib.Node

 

The system does not seem to recognise MSComctLib.Node as a recongnisable object. I am assuming that this declaration is to create a root node to add the folders. It may be a function of VB6 as I am using a CDO programming book example which uses VB to guide me. I am not sure how to create the root node correctly in VB.NET.

 

Any IDEAS anyone

 

Cheers

If you are using the VB.Net TreeView it has undergon some changes since the VB6 version. The new type is 'TreeNode'

Thanks for that! What I needed instead of:

 

Dim nodStore AS MSComctLib.Node

 

was the declaration:

 

Dim nodeStore As New System.Windows.Forms.TreeNode

 

Worked a treat. Any one reading this who needs to know how to expose the OutLook Info Stores, feel free to get in touch.
