Outlook from ASP.NET

[W Akthar]

Hi,

I am trying to set an appointment from my ASP.NET
intranet web-site.
The following code works fine when used from a console
application but when used in an asp.net web-site I get
Access Denied error.

Outlook.Application oApp = new Outlook.Application();
Outlook.NameSpace oNS = oApp.GetNamespace("mapi");
oNS.Logon("WAkthar",
Missing.Value, false, true);

Outlook.AppointmentItem oAppt = (Outlook.AppointmentItem)
oApp.CreateItem(Outlook.OlItemType.olAppointmentItem);

oAppt.Subject = "Subject";
oAppt.Body = "Content";
oAppt.Location = "Location";

oAppt.Start = Convert.ToDateTime("13/12/2004 9:00:00 AM");
oAppt.End = Convert.ToDateTime("13/12/2004 1:00:00 PM");

oAppt.ReminderSet = true;
oAppt.ReminderMinutesBeforeStart = 5;
oAppt.BusyStatus = Outlook.OlBusyStatus.olBusy;
oAppt.IsOnlineMeeting = false;

oAppt.Save();
oNS.Logoff();

oApp = null;
oNS = null;
oAppt = null;


Does anyone have any ideas???

Off the top of my head, the console app runs as you, the asp .net process
doesn't. More importantly don't use outlook in asp.net it can really kill
your server.

keep in mind that asp.net run on the server machine and not the client
computer. Any processing you do, will occur on the host machine. This could
be related to the issue you are having. To make use of the clients'
computer, you would have to user like a activeX control or java applet.

Can I not do this via .NET ??

You can if you use a client side control like Tampa .Net suggests.
