Sharepoint-Lists and adm-Template ???

[Christian Gröbner [MVP]]

Hello,

has anyone sucessfully configured SharePoint-Lists in Outlook 2007 over the
adm-template?

I have configured my adm-template as follows:

Sharepoint-List
Name: Test
Value: http://sharepoint.company.tld/Folder/List

I can see the entry under
HKLM\Software\Policys\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Outlook\Options\Accounts and
regmon shows that these regvalues are read at the startup of Outlook. But I
can't see the lists in Outlook.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks for your help

Christian,

This is because the URL you specify must be in the form "stssync:// ...".
For example:

stssync://sts/?ver=1.1&type=tasks&cmd=add-folder&base-url=http://server/sites/greg&list-url=/...6}&site-name=Greg Mansius&list-name=OL12Tasks

The only way I can find this URL is using a tool like MFCMAPI to examine the
associated contents table of the SharePoint list after it's been synch'd to
an Outlook profile. Please let me know if you need detailed instructions on
how to find the stssync URL

Hello Greg,

I have already tried it with stssync://sharepointsite/List but there is an
error, that says I should contact my sharepoint admin :-(

Do you have an exact syntax of the url-format I have to enter. I see your
url looks like ?ver=1.1&type&cmd=add-folder&base-url.. do I have to add
these commands?

Christian,

The only way I have found (so far) to determine the correct URL is to
extract the URL using the MAPI Editor Tool
(http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;291794)

1. Add the SharePoint list to your profile using the Connect to Outlook
option on the list.
2. Take all the defaults and make sure the account is in your Outlook
profile.
3. Run MFCMAPI.exe
4. Click OK
5. On the Session menu select Logon and Display Store Table
6. Select your current profile if prompted
7. Double-click the "SharePoint" Lists item in the display of stores in your
profile
8. Expand "Root Container" and then "Top of Personal Folders"
9. Right-click the folder for the WSS list you just added and click "Open
Associated Contents table"
10. Select "SharePoint" in the top pane of the window
11. In the bottom pane, scroll down the list of properties until you see the
one with the "stssync" URL in the "Value" column.
12. Double-click this property
13. In the dialog that appears copy the text from the top box (Ansi String)
using CTRL+C

This is the URL I got to work in my test environment.

Hope this helps.

Hello Greg,

thank you so much for this information. This is excacty what I'm looking
for!

Another question. Under Outlook 2003 we didn't used Word as E-Mail editior.
In Outlook 2007 you can't configure this option any more, because it has is
an own editor. But if you have Word installed on the machine it looks like
that word is used as editor.

We have an application (CRM) that automatically creates documents filled
with address and so on over DDE. This works find as long as Outlook 2007 is
closed. But if Outlook 2007 is opened we get DDE-Errors.

Do you know any regkey or option where I can change this behavior?

Word is always the email editor in Outlook 2007; there is no other option. Whether it's Word with its full capabilities or Word with a more limited set depends on whether Word and Outlook were installed from the same Office 2007 package.

I would suggest that since you have a new topic, you post it in a newsgroup specifically for general Outlook programming issues "down the hall" at microsoft.public.outlook.program_vba or, via web interface, at http://www.microsoft.com/office/community/en-us/default.mspx?dg=microsoft.public.outlook.program_vba or perhaps, even better, in a Word programming forum since it's the Word developers who are likely to be up on the nuances of what Outlook 2007's use of Word adds to the situation.

 

[Greg Mansius [MSFT]]

Christian,

Whether or not you have Word 2007 installed, you will always have "Word" as
your e-mail editor in Outlook 2007. If you don't have Word 2007 installed
you have a few less features, but "Word" is still your editor. This is
because the functionality comes from wwlib.dll and not from Winword.exe. If
you query the Outlook 2007 Help on "editor" I think you'll find a topic that
talks about features available with/without Word 2007 installed.

Hope this helps.

Unfortunately, there is no equivalent Help article for developers. I've stumbled across some unexpected problems in my testing related to moving around in the Word editor in a mail message. However, I don't know anything about this specific DDE issue.
