Hi all
I have a client recently who wants to create a template for outloof with a reference number (auto-increment) whenever he sends out mail to a particular person. From outlook one can create a template but not the auto number.
Anyone have any idea on using VB or any other languages to construct this auto running number template?
I have not use VB before but understand from feedback that programming for outlook using VB is the simplest.
Thanks in advance.

I've worked with Outlook and other Office apps before and I find that VB.Net is the easiest language to use when coding for MS Office (mostly because of its oh-so-forgiving nature in allowing direct calls to the Office interop functions instead of using PInvoke and also not having to pass Missing as parameter value in VB).
However, VB.Net and C# are quite interchangeable you shouldn't have any difficulties in switching between the two.
To create a template you need to have an OFT file (google how to create it if you don't know how, it's pretty simple) and publish it to the client's PC (or a shared folder).
The easiest way I can think of is for you to store a running number as an xml file in the client's PC (or a database if necessary) and increment it after each use (i.e. sending an e-mail).
If you're also using Exchange Server you might be able to store the data in Exchange (e.g. bind the value to the particulare e-mail address).

hi
thanks... but just need to ask... how do you bind the data to exchange end extract it to your desired position (i'm totally clueless regarding exchange)
eg of mail template
Ref: (Running number) 20/09/2005
content......

how to make sure that the number appears at the correct spot.

You have to store the user's autonumber as a custom field in Exchange.
You can extract it using MAPI. I myself prefer Outlook Redemption[^]. It's not free but it's pretty good.
To make sure the number appears in the correct spot you can create a message based on the template, read the content of the message, replace the running number location (e.g. you put [[AUTONUM]] in the template) with the current number, and reassign the message content.
Or simply write the message content when creating blank message.
The safest option is to not use templates at all as the person receiving the e-mail will need to have Outlook and the template installed if you are using custom form, otherwise they will only see the standard e-mail message.

Hello World !
i'm trying to develop an app in VB6.
assume that i have a handle of an already opened IE window with the title "Hello".
how can my app know when that specific IE window has finished loading a document? i found on MSDN an IE event named DocumentComplete. how can i use this? or is there another way? can you post some sample code?
thanks in advance.

You can't use the events of an object that you don't have. Just having the window handle isn't enough. You'll have to get the automation object first. This is not an easy task. There is an example of what you need here[^], but I don't know if it's going to work for you.

And admitting the example from the link works, how should I use DocumentComplete? And if I want to run a javascript command in that window? Say... alert()
|
|
|
|
|
No idea. I never use it.
Also, I don't think you can execute a JavaScript statement. At least not easily, without rewriting the page from your code to inject your new code.

hi,
does anybody know if there is a way of catching the item highlight event while traversing a combobox?
Thanks in advance

There is no "highlight event". I think the closest you're going to come is the SelectedIndexChanged event. What are you trying to do with this?

hi,
I'm trying to generate tooltiptext for long entries. I've used the selectedindexchanged event which works ok but the list retracts after selection with the tooltiptext appearing a distance below the combo box. I'd like the ability to hover on each entry while the list is extended. I thought there might be some way of using a highlight event since each entry is highlighted as the mouse moves over the items.

Hello there fellow coders,
I have 2 picture boxes, pic1 style set to center img, and pic2 style set to normal.
i have a 512x512 pixel image in pic1, i then rotate it 45 degrees w/ some math on a graphics object and put it back in pic 2. in the rotation the image size goes to 724x724, but since its style is set to center img, you don't see a translation.
now my quest. I want to copy only the visible pixels (a 512x512 section) in pic1 to pic2.
any thoughts, when I try to get a section from the graphics object, pic2 shows a translation.
the angle dosent stay a@ 45, it's in continuous motion.
i'd u/l the project when I figure it out...
for now:

If you've done a translation, you need to reverse it before using the graphics object for something else. If I get this right, you've done a rotate, which of course makes for a bigger image. But you want to copy out the central square, the bit you can see in your picture box ? This is pretty trivial, you just copy a section from the graphics object. If the graphics object is not in the right state to do this, you need to reverse whatever you did to it before.

I figured it out, when i tried to paint directly to the picture box it didn't work. Now it does because before i was overwriting it somewhere else. no more codeing w/o coffee...

I am trying to pass a Integer to my sql statement.
If I use this,
sComm += "SELECT Fixtures.HomeTeam, Fixtures.AwayTeam FROM Fixtures WHERE (Fixtures.FixtureID = ID)"
It doesn't work.
But if I use this:
sComm += "SELECT Fixtures.HomeTeam, Fixtures.AwayTeam FROM Fixtures WHERE (Fixtures.FixtureID = 1)"
It does work, obviously only getting fixture Id 1. The numbers I am trying to SELECT WHERE are autonums, could this be doing it.

|
|
|
|
Change the sql statement to this
Dim ID as integer = //source of id
sComm += "SELECT Fixtures.HomeTeam, Fixtures.AwayTeam FROM Fixtures WHERE Fixtures.FixtureID = " & ID & ";"

You could go with KaptainKrunchs version but it's always better to use stored procedures and parameterized queries. Read SQL Injection Attacks and Some Tips on How to Prevent Them[^] by Colin Angus Mackay for more information.

In addition to what's already been said, why are you adding to sComm instead of just assigning a value to it ?

try this
cmd = new oledb.oledbcommand
cmd.commandtext = "SELECT Fixtures.HomeTeam, Fixtures.AwayTeam FROM Fixtures WHERE (Fixtures.FixtureID = ?)"
cmd.parameter.add("@1",1)
cmd.execute
its very safe

Hi. My problem is this. I created a MS Access application in Access 2000 under Windows 2000, Service Pack 4.
My Access application has a form that asks the user to provide a file's pathname and I provide the Open/Save-As common dialog using MS Common Dialog Control, version 6.0. I do this using underlying VBA code and the properties of the Commond Dialog (OLE Class=CommonDialog, Class=MSComDlg.CommonDialog.1)
'call the Open file dialog and retrieve pathname selected<br />
'the Open/SaveAs common dialog appears as an ActiveX Control on the form (design view)<br />
<br />
With ActiveXCtl_OpenSaveAs<br />
.CancelError = True<br />
.Filter = "My data files (*.csv;*.txt)|*.csv;*.txt|All Files (*.*)|*.*"<br />
.DefaultExt = ".csv"<br />
.DialogTitle = "Select data file for Import"<br />
.FilterIndex = 1<br />
.Flags = cdlOFNHideReadOnly<br />
' .Filename = strInitialFilename<br />
.ShowOpen<br />
'<br />
If .Filename <> "" Then<br />
editInputPathname.Value = .Filename<br />
End If<br />
'<br />
End With<br />
Under Office 2003 on a Windows XP machine, I get the error
Microsoft Office Access
Object doesn't support this property or method
then related error messages...
You don't have the license required to use this Active X control...
I have tried putting the COMDLG32.OCX file in places it should find, but that doesn't help.
What must I do to get my code to work on latest Access edition?
Thanks.
Johnny
