MAPI - Outlook

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hi, 

I'm using the Codejock components in combination with Xbase++. I have a problem wit the calendar controle to use the Outlook agenda.

If I select MAPI in the VB sample, everything is working, and the data is added to my Outlook agenda.

If I try this with Xbase++, I don't succeed.

Test 1 :
If I do : cConnectionString := "Provider=MAPI;
Result : a file with the name 'provider=mapi;' is created.

Test 2 :
If I do : cConnectionString := "Provider=MAPI;Data Source=agenda.dat"
Result : a file 'agenda.dat' is created.

If I look in the VB sample code, I find where the connection is made, but I can't find where the 'data source' is initialised. 
In frmCalendarDataChooser I find :
    If eDPType = cjCalendarData_MAPI Then
        strConnEx = "Provider=MAPI;"
    End If

I don't understand where this is connected to my Outlook agenda?

I found the outcmd.dat file but is seems as I can't use it as Data Source? An empty agenda appears.

Any suggestions?

Regards,
Chris Andries
