I use the below code to open an access database, but it opens for a second and then closes. When I run the same code from excel, it works OK.
Code:
Sub OpenDatabase1()
Dim LPath As String
Dim LCategoryID As Long

when I open a .msg file using
dim x as long
x = Shell("""C:Program Files (x86)Microsoft OfficeOffice15Outlook.exe"" /f ""D:mymessage.msg""")
how to access the fields "To", "CC", "Subject", "Date", "Body text", etc ?
My problem: I have a lot of files .msg (about 1000) and I want to put them in a single file (preferably in txt).
My application relies on whether Outlook is open and more importantly, with the correct Exchange profile selected. To ensure this I have the following code which, on the work PCs (Windows XP and Office 2003) works correctly.
Code:
If Outlook_is_Running = True Then
Set myOlApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application", "localhost")
Set myNameSpace = myOlApp.GetNamespace("MAPI")
Set colFolders = myNameSpace.Folders
On Error Resume Next
[code]....
The work PCs are being upgraded soon to Windows 7 and Office 2007 so I have taken the application home and started to develop it on my home PC (Windows 8.1 64 and Office 2013 64). I have used PtrSafe where necessary and have compiled with no errors, but this code always returns false even though Outlook 2013 is open.
On further investigation, if I comment out the 'On Error Resume Next line I get the error Active X component cannot create the object (or similar) Error 429. This is the same regardless of whether Outlook is open or not
I'd like a command button to open Outlook and create a new email message with the To and Subject fields already populated with what I want, is there anyway to do this?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI would like to create a button that when pressed opens up an outlook email. The email address will be populated by one email address every time. I don't want it to automatically send as the body will need to be filled out by the user. It would be useful if the date and time it was sent could be recorded in the form somewhere too (would this be in a text box?).

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a macro set to email a form to a person once a condition is met. This works fine but I've discovered that Outlook (2010) has to be open BEFORE this macro is invoked.
I wanted to add a step to the macro before the one that makes it email that basically says to open Outlook.
I have tried the RunApplication macro, but I apparently am not getting the path right. I don't understand what the problem is.
I accidentally dragged Outlook to my desktop and therefore created a shortcut from my Start Menu, but now when I go to Microsoft Office in my Start Menu, Microsoft Outlook isn't one of the options. I can't find the path to where it may reside now.
I am using the path to the shortcut on my desktop.

Please help! I wish to set up an access database from which I can email mutiple contacts at once. I would like to send a pretty HTML message and, if possible automatically address each email personally, i.e. Dear John rather than Dear all.
I have experience with access but not sending emails from records stored in a database. My visualbasic is um...basic, but I can understand it if you're kind enough to explain in simple terms! Your advice would be most appreciated - I need ease of use and most importantly the personal touch of addressing each email to the individual.
Thanks! Look forward to a reply!
I have a contact form on our website which sends an email to the business dev team saying that the user has requested to be sent product sheets. The email contains the users name, email, phone number, and a few other fields. Is there a way I can send the details of these emails to my access database automatically?

Item.Save

This script checks every item in the outlook inbox where the item.SenderName = my database sendername
This works every time except for when the sendername has quotes or single quotes in their name. So i am trying to utlize the replace method on the item sendername before trying to find the items in the inbox but its not working.

I build MS Access databases for small businesses. Generating emails from within Access is no problem - I can even use Access VBA to select specific email accounts and email signatures. However, I have not been able to find a way to use Access VBA to select a Theme that was set up in Outlook. If I create a Theme using the Outlook 2010 menu selections: Options / Mail / Stationery and Fonts / Theme, that theme is present every time I generate a new email from within Outlook. But if I generate a new email via Access VBA, that theme is no longer present - the email that VBA generates has no Theme. What Access VBA code do I need to use to select an Outlook Theme - even just the default Outlook Theme?
One thought is that if someone knows the keyboard shortcuts to select an Outlook Theme, I can do the rest. I can use SendKeys. But if there is a more sophisticated way of making the Theme appear on emails generated by Access VBA, I am eager to learn.
I am using Access 2010, by the way.
It's been some time since I wrote the following, which takes a string made up of "Lastname Firstname Telephone" and writes it at a specific time in Outlook. It uses Late binding so it works across all Oulook versions.
Code:
Public Function funOutputAppointmentToOutlook(dtmDate As Date, strSubject As String)
Dim olApp As Object
Dim mNameSpace As Object
Const olFolderCalendar = 9
Const olAppointmentItem = 1
[Code] ....
I would like to first check the specific Outlook time slot whether the string exists already and only if it does not exist to write it.
I am very new to VBA. I found some code that will allow me to add an appointment to my personal calendar with using access VBA and it works great. It also allows me to add an appointment to another calendar created under "My Calendars" folder.
I wanted to know how to change the code in order to add the appointment to the SHARED calendar instead.
The main folder is called "Shared Calendars" which is at the same level as the default "My Calendars" folder. Under the "Shared Calendars" folder the calendar is called "Tester".
Here is the code im using at the moment: I believe I have have to change the line of code that is in red but I don't know how.

I found a code that will go trough an emailbox and export all emails to a table in access. This part is working OK (except the received date). I also wante to show in the table if the email contains an attachment, but that part is not working at all. The project actually is meant to store the emails on a shared drive and attachments and have the emails in Access so I can see them all and recall the one needed.

Microsoft has a Desktop Student Database template (Access 2010) that does exactly what I'm trying to do:
open the Outlook Contacts dialog box, select a contact from the GAL, and then programmatically save it to a record in one of my tables.
I've tried simulating the button/coding on my data entry form, but I'm getting the error:
"The command or action 'AddFromOutlook' isn't available now"
I've search high and low but have only found a reference to creating a temp contacts table to import all the contacts.
I have code that automatically send emails out from an Access Customer Contacts Database. I am using Access and Outlook 2007 but the code needs to work with later versions of Access and Outlook.
I have very poor knowledge of coding and usually manage to cobble something together from looking at other code on the net but don't understand most of it.
I have the following code which works perfectly except I want to be able to embed an image in the email body (not have the image as an attachment but actually show it in the body of the email).
Most of the code I have found around this topic is too complex for me to understand and utilise within the context of the code I have.
Ideally I want to take the image from an attachment field in a table returned by the "tblMailingList_Query".

I like to do following task using access VBA:
1. Open outlook.
2. Select word file(with tables and graphics) and insert into new outlook email.
I've written a function which opens the Outlook GAL dialog, allows users to select recipients and passes back a 2-D array (recipients and type i.e. To, CC or BCC).Here is the code :
Code:
Public Function GetContactsFromOutlookGAL() As Variant
Dim appOutlook As Object ' Outlook Application
Dim objNameSpace As Object ' Outlook NameSpace
Dim objSelectNamesDialog As Object ' Outlook Select Names Dialog
[code]...
The only problem I have is that when I 'display' the SelectNamesDialog, it doesn't make it the active window and bring it to the front - it just opens the dialog in Outlook and you have to navigate to the main Outlook window to find it.I'd like for the dialog to 'popup' - ideally, without the main Outlook window dragging along behind
I believe it's possible (judging from this article) to achieve this using API's - specifically, a combination of FindWindow (to retrieve the window handle) and ShowWindowLong (to set it to a topmost window in front of all other windows).
