I have been playing with the TadxOutlookAppEvents component and note that it provides functionality to trap ItemLoad and ItemSend events. However, it does not appear to provide access to other trappable Item events such as ItemClose, for example.

Am I missing something obvious here, or do I need to write my own routines to trap these other events? If so, is there any sample code to show me how it should be done correctly?

I have looked at the sample code for Outlook Events, and I have previously had a go at this before buying Add-In Express, so I have some idea about how to do it, but I am puzzling over why the TadxOutlookAppEvents component provides access to some events, but not others.

Hello Andrew,

Outlook provides events through several objects, not only through the Application object. You access item-level events using TMailItem, TTaskItem, etc.

Thanks for the reply. But am I missing something. I can see that TMailItem is defined in Outlook2000, but what about TTaskItem, for example? Is that defined anywhere?

TTaskItem is declared in Outlook2000, too.

Well, it is not in the version of the file that I have - the one that shipped with Delphi XE2! That is what prompted the question in the first place.

Hmmm, it looks like a bug in Delphi Xe2. I'll create such a class soon and send it to you by email.

Thanks for the offer.

I found another version of the Office2000 library files on another computer and tried using them instead, but that did not work, because I now get an error saying that Office2000.Assistant was compiled with a different version of Publisher2003.

As I do not have the source files for Publisher2003, I am now stuck!

So some further assistance would be helpful.

Thanks.

Hello Andrew,

You don't need to use Office2000 library files. Instead, you need to add the TTaskItem class to your project.

Sorry, but you are confusing me. The class is not defined in my current Outlook2000 library, so if I try and reference TTaskItem, I get an error because it does not exist.

So surely, I need to somehow incorporate the "correct" Outlook2000 file into my project so that the class is then defined and accessible?

Andrew,

Have you received an email from me? I sent it yesterday to the email address registered with the forum.
