Outlook Programming using C#

[Guest]

Hey folks,

I have created two empty.pst files and it created two empty folders both
named "Personal Folder". This is fine, but my problem is I have two .pst
files, p1 and p2. I want to move Inbox messages to Inbox of p1 and Sent
messages to Sent folder of p2. I am not sure how should I create two
different folder in two seperate .pst files and then move messages. I know
how to move message between folder, don't know how to move message to .pst
since both .pst files appear as "Personal Folder"

Any help?

thanx

anku,
I doubt that the Outlook Object Model provides methods to move messages from
one .pst store to another physical .pst store. You will most likely need to
extract the messages into an array or collection object, switch to using the
new pst file, and then save all the messages into the requisite folder in the
new one.

Hi Peter,

I think I made it some what complicated in my previous posting....I
want to move messages from my Inbox to .pst file NOT from one .pst to
another.

Same concept. Your Inbox is in a given pst file that the Outlook Object Model
is using as its datastore.

So my question is how to back up email messages (i.e. move from Inbox to .pst
file) programmatically? I search online and I saw lot of reviews from other
developers about backing up email messages "Programatically" in outlook, but
they didn't provided good explanation of how to do that.

I would reccomend looking at www.freevbcode.com

there are quite a few good examples there

but; I'll have to say that Outlook comes with it's own programming
language; and it sure isn't C#!

VB is the worlds most popular language; this C# _CRAP_ was never
invented
