_ol_folderAccess crashes outlook2013

[hazed6809]

upgrading a older script that worked on outlook 2010 that is causing me issues on 2013

I have a shared mailbox called "NED-ASSET MANAGEMENT" and I want to access the "INBOX of it"

$oOutlook = _OL_Open(True)

$mailbox = "NED-ASSET MANAGEMENT"

$aFolder = _OL_FolderAccess($oOutlook, StringStripWS($mailbox, 3) & "\INBOX")

 

the error I get is

"C:\Program Files (x86)\AutoIt3\Include\OutlookEX.au3" (1269) : ==> The requested action with this object has failed.:
$oFolder = $oNamespace.Folders($aFolders[1])
$oFolder = $oNamespace^ ERROR

I am stubbed at what the issue is.

Which version of AutoIt do you run now?
Which version of AutoIt did you run with Outlook 2010?

[hazed6809]

v3.3.14.1 Now

V3.3.12 before

Then the problem is caused by the new way COM errors are handled.
I haven't fixed that in the OutlookEX UDF by now.

Could you please add

_OL_ErrorNotify(4)

at the top of your script and try again?
You then should get an error code (@error is being set).

I went back to the original code, and started to re-fix my bugs, 1 step at a time.

First thing I was having issues with  the whole script was opening up a spreadsheet on a DFS server, sometimes it would open sometimes it would not.

putting quotes around it the filename worked everytime.  so I made that change to the original...Then the SQL credentials were wrong, but that is done after it read the email folder so that was a good sign...maybe I just screwed something up while debugging.

I had the Server information hardcoded into the program, in this version. I had earlier made a change to pull server info from an ini file.

(which was the code that is running on the Outlook 2010 box, successfully for the last month.)

ran it again and it ..... then crashed again,  couldn't find folder, very strange since this is the first thing that it does after the includes and I run this code in many

programs. 

Since I only needed 1 server for this program, I removed getting the rest of the servers variables from ini file. and just get the one server information I needed   and it is now working.

I still do not know why. but It now works (at least before I compile it)

Still scratching my head ....

Thank you
