Hi water,

I'm trying to export Outlook 2010 Global Address List to text or csv file. Can I know whether this UDF able to do it? Thanks.

[water]

In short: Yes.

Longer:

Run _OL_AddressListGet to determine the GAL. Element 0 of the 2d array is set to = $olExchangeGlobalAddressList for a GAL.

Use _OL_AddressListMemberGet to get all members of the GAL.See the example script for _OL_AddressListMemberGet.

Hi Water, here is the script I used to create repeating appointment

#include <OutlookEx.au3>

Global $oOutlook = _OL_Open()
If @error <> 0 Then Exit MsgBox(16, "OutlookEX UDF", "Error creating a connection to Outlook. @error = " & @error & ", @extended = " & @extended)

; *****************************************************************************
; Example 1
; Create an appointment and set recurrence properties.
; *****************************************************************************
Global $sCurrentUser = $oOutlook.GetNameSpace("MAPI").CurrentUser.Name
Global $sStart = StringLeft(_Nowcalc(),16)
Global $sEnd   = StringLeft(_DateAdd("h", 3, _NowCalc()), 16)
_OL_Wrapper_CreateAppointment($oOutlook, "TestMeeting12345", $sStart, $sEnd, "My office", False, "Testbody", _
    15, $olBusy, $olImportanceHigh, $olPrivate, $olRecursWeekly, $sStart, _DateAdd("w", 3, $sEnd), 1)
If @error <> 0 Then Exit MsgBox(16, "OutlookEX UDF: _OutlookCreateAppointment Wrapper Script", "Error creating appointment. @error = " & @error & ", @extended: " & @extended)
MsgBox(64, "OutlookEX UDF: _OutlookCreateAppointment Wrapper Script", "Appointment successfully created '" & $sCurrentUser & "'!")

_OL_Close($oOutlook)

When you manually create the same appointment and then have a look at the XML, what is different?

I can't test here because of not having access to our servers. But I miss the "private" setting in your XML file.

Hi. I have successfully used this UDF befor, but now i cant get it to work.

I cant even get _OL_Open() to work.

The function itself return: 0 = Fail

But both @extended and @error also return 0.

#include <outlookEX.au3>
#include <array.au3>

$oOutlook = _OL_Open()
ConsoleWrite("Outlook: " & $oOutlook & @CRLF)
ConsoleWrite("Error: " & @error & @CRLF)
ConsoleWrite("Extended: " & @extended & @CRLF)

_OL_Close($oOutlook)

Im running Office 2010 32bit Swedish on Windows 8.1 Eng

Which version of the OutlookEX UDF do you use?

[water]

I just noticed that your first ConsoleWrite function call overwrites the values for @error and extended.

Try this one to get correct values:

#include <outlookEX.au3>
#include <array.au3>
$oOutlook = _OL_Open()
ConsoleWrite("Outlook: " & IsObj($oOutlook) & @CRLF & "Error: " & @error & @CRLF & "Extended: " & @extended & @CRLF)
_OL_Close($oOutlook)

_OL_Close($oOutlook)

You are correct of course. So i remade the script:

 

#include <outlookEX.au3>
#include <array.au3>

$oOutlook = _OL_Open()
ConsoleWrite("Outlook: " & $oOutlook & " Error: " & @error & " Extended: " & @extended & @CRLF)

This time i get:

Outlook: 0 Error: 1 Extended: -2146959355

@error = 1 means: Unable to create Outlook Object

Are  you sure Outlook is installed on this client? Is it a full or just a trial version?

Yes. Its a fully licensed copy of Office 2010. Outlook is always running.

[water]

I have noticed that - after you have upgraded a trial version to a full version - COM support is still missing.

Uninstalling and installing the full version is needed in that case.

As far as i know, this is a full install of office and it never was a trial version (again, as far as i know). Is there a way that i can check/install COM support?

Yes it is.

[water]

Strange. If Outlook is running then line 194 should never be executed.

[water]

Do you run the Autoit script with admin permissions (#RequireAdmin)?

It seems that the process that starts or hooks into Outlook needs to be run with the same permissions as Outlook.

Ahh there we go. I always run as Admin becuase you get ALOT of access issues in Windows 8 if you dont.

I guess there is no way around it huh?
