Hi
"\http://schemas.microsoft.com/mapi/string/{00020329-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}/TestField\"
<> 'Value'";

This fileter in while using Outlook Advance search should give all those
mails which do not contain Value in TestField field but it is doing exact
match and not contain in. I got this filter by making a query in oulook.

If there is some other query plz tell me

Saurabh
 
Saurabh,

It sounds like you want to use a "like" operator. Unfortunately, it
does not seem that is supported. It only supports equals, not equals,
exists, and not exists.

You would have to cycle through each item and test the field yourself.

Hope this helps.
 
What platform are you using for this? Regular COM or VSTO? The VSTO approach
takes a NOT argument not <>. Not sure if it would be the same for COM. Check
to see.

I a using COM and it supports <>.
Nicolas - i used advance search so that i dont have to parse all mails as it
becomes slow. :(

support NOT LIKE

Thanx
Saurabh
