DASL Filter doesn't work when defined programatically

[escamoteur]

Hi,

I have a strange problem.

I define a new View like:

void CreateViews()
{
string FilterActiveBOs = GetResourceString("ViewActiveOpportunities");
Outlook.Views BOViews = BO_Folder.Views;

if (BOViews[GetResourceString("ViewNameActiveBO")] == null)
{
Outlook.View activeView = BOViews.Add(GetResourceString("ViewNameActiveBO"),
Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.OlViewType.olTableView,
Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.OlViewSaveOption.olViewSaveOptionThisFolderEveryone);
activeView.XML = FilterActiveBOs;
activeView.Save();
activeView.Apply();

}

As Filter I defined:
"http://schemas.microsoft.com/mapi/string/{00020329-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}/boStatus" <> 'closed'

But entries that contain "closed" are still displayed

No The strange part. If I built a View via the Outlook GUI that has excatly the same filer expression it works.

Any idea?
Best

Hi,

don't know why the Outlook GUI Builder seems to display a wrong DASL expression.

Ich I use this one:

NOT &quot;http://schemas.microsoft.com/mapi/string/{00020329-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}/boStatus&quot; LIKE '%closed%'

Everything works fine.

Best
Tom
