OutlookEX UDF

If someone wants to play with setting the default form for a folder, here is the function:

Any comments on this function or forms in general?

I have used this OutlookEx UDF and it works great. I really appreciate the work that was put into this.

I have a question regarding a script that I wrote that is currently not using the Outlook UDF (Although I use it in other situations perfectly)

Here is my dilemma I often have to configure email accounts in Outlook (Meaning create a new account) Often times I need to create multiple accounts because I work with vendors who require me to have their email accounts I have to configure 20-25 separate email accounts into outlook for myself and a few others. As you can imagine it is a pain to do this. So I created this script that reads an Excel sheet and will load 25 accounts in around 2 minutes. That works great if when it is ran people will leave it alone and let it finish.

Because I have to deal with the Outlook GUI it must stay focused and activate certain windows.

I would like to move this script further along and have it run like something out of OutlookEX and run without send key strokes and such.

I am an amateur Autoit user but I get the jest. I am having a hard time finding away to automate this script a bit further.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Which Outlook version do you run?

water · May 28, 2013

I searched Google and there seems to be no API to create accounts using AutoIt.

Looks like you have to write the data for new accounts into the registry.

water · May 28, 2013

Another approach could be to block the Console input while your script is running.

water · May 28, 2013

Or create a profile with the required accounts and start Outlook with the /importprf command line switch.

I am using 2007

ptrex · May 29, 2013

I use an application that handles creating profiles using a logon script.

It will create a profile using dynamic parameters :

createPrf.exe Profile -Mailbox=YourServer@UserName -PST=Z:Your_Archive.pst

This is an extract of the HKCU keys that are created :

This maybe WAYY to general of a question.

But I have a user here that somehow had a huge junk of his emails duplicated (thousands I believe).

Would there be an easy way to index all the emails, cycle through them and tell if an email is a duplicate of one?

water · June 7, 2013

Use _OL_ItemFind to retrieve all mails of a folder plus subfolders. Add EntryID to the data to be returned by the function. Set the sort parameter to subject or date or whatever lets you decide that two mails are equal.

Then process the returned array. Call _OL_ItemDelete and pass the EntryID of the item to be deleted.

get the currently used Outlook profile in Outlook XP, 2003, 2007, 2010, 2013

ok, here goes:

see 5 functions:

the main function _OL_ProfileGetCurrent() is called by a script to return the currently used Outlook profile.

how it works:

it calls __OL_PSTGet_StoreID_FromOutlook() which returns a list of mail stores currently loaded to Outlook.

regardless, it calls __OL_ProfileGetRegKey() which returns the registry key where Outlook profiles are stored.

for every profile stored in the registry, a list of mail stores is produced.by calling __OL_PSTGet_StoreID_FromRegistry()

one by one, the list generated from Outlook is compared to every list generated from the registry, by calling _Array_Compare2D()

if only a single match is found, then the related profile name is returned to the calling script.

the entire process works with Outlook XP and above, also tested on Outlook 2013 64-bit.

water, you may want to add these to the UDF:

_OL_ItemConversationGetTopic()

_OL_ItemConversationGetIndex()

the purpose is to build the conversation list of a given email message. currently, if you have the "index" of all messages, you can easily build the list; i'm in the process of checking if the list can be built directly using the index, without the need to read the entire data store. the "topic" is useless in this case, but it's easy to get so i added it anyway.

orbs,

thanks a lot for this functions!

I will have a look and test them and see how they can be included in the UDF.

Which version of Outlook do you use? I noticed that Outlook 2010 has a new object: Conversation.

So let's see which function can be made available for which Outlook version.

orbs · July 3, 2013

generally, i test my functions with Outlook 2003, 2007, 2010, and 2013 64-bit. Outlook XP support is tested, but i don't mind if that fails.

in the future i will comment my functions with the supported Outlook version.

specifically, my goal is to generate the conversation list related to a given email message.

1) the Conversation object has the GetTable method, which - with some extra processing - will achieve the goal.

2) it can be achieved also by using the Conversation Index as is.

i must assess the complexity of coding each option, and the performance of the solution.

my obvious choice would be the latter, as it has wider compatibility. i have already began coding it, it is very easy to code, but requires reading the entire data store (or so it seems), hunting for messages that comply with the index. if the Conversation object works by pre-storing the conversation table - which i doubt - it will be much faster. it requires more study, and i can not handle two research projects at a time. with your blessings, i will complete what i'm doing with the index, then i will tackle the Conversation object method (or someone else can beat me to it).

water · July 3, 2013

As there are still many users running Outlook 2003 and 2007 I think the UDF should support them.

If we have the choice to make a function runnable with those I then prefer this option.

I will read the MS documentation as well to get an idea how this all works in Outlook 2003/2007.

Thanks a lot for your contribution!

orbs,

how about putting it all into a single function: _OL_ConversationGet?

If the Outlook version is < 2010 then return an array with ID and topic. Else return an array with all information derived from the Conversation object. This part doesn't work yet but I'm sure we can create a useful function.

; #FUNCTION# ====================================================================================================================

;                  $vItem    - EntryID or object of the item
;                  $sStoreID - Optional: StoreID where the EntryID is stored (default = users mailbox)
; Return values .: Success - one-dimensional one based array with the following information:
;                  |1 - String representing the index/ID of the conversation thread
;                  |2 - String representing the topic of the conversation thread
;                  Failure - Returns "" and sets @error:
;                  |1 - $oOL is not an object
;                  |2 - No Outlook item specified
;                  |3 - Item could not be found. EntryID might be wrong. @extended is set to the COM error
;                  |4 - Item is not part of a conversation
;                  |5 - Outlook 2010: Store is not conversation enabled
;                  |6 - Conversation object could not be accessed. @extended is set to the COM error
;                  |7 - Table object of conversation could not be accessed. @extended is set to the COM error

let me focus on something i see in your func, before i can express opinion: what is Store is not conversation enabled ?

edit: i'm asking, because MSDN says (for Outlook 2010):

A store supports the Conversation view if the store is a POP, IMAP, or PST store, or if it runs a version of Microsoft Exchange Server that is at least Microsoft Exchange Server 2010. A store also supports the Conversation view if the store is running Microsoft Exchange Server 2007, the version of Outlook is at least Microsoft Outlook 2010, and Outlook is running in cached mode.

If a store supports conversations, calling the GetConversation method of an item in the store returns a Conversation object for the item. If the store does not support conversations, GetConversation returns Nothing (null in C#) for items in the store.

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.office.interop.outlook._store.isconversationenabled(v=office.14).aspx

however, i can read the conversation index for Outlook 2003 successfully.

I have taken the code from a MSDN example, so it might not be the best way to code it.

Looks like we can combine error code 5 and 6.
