Hello,

I'm trying to use MAPI Store Accessor for getting Outlook._TaskItem property, and have some problem with it.

I have an method: 

public static bool GetMAPIPropertyAsBool(object oMAPIObject, uint uiPropertyTag)
        {
            var accessor = new AddinExpress.MAPI.ADXMAPIStoreAccessor();
            accessor.Initialize(true);
            var prop = accessor.GetProperty(oMAPIObject, uiPropertyTag);
            accessor.LogOff();
            return Boolean.Parse(prop.ToString());
        }


And call: 

MAPI.GetMAPIPropertyAsBool(oMapiObject, 0x00008109);


It's work perfect for defined properties as ENUM in Accessor, but I need to read TaskDeadOccurrence(ID:0x00008109) property as bool from Outlook._TaskItem.MAPIOBJECT, and it return NULL for me..

I use OutlookSpy for inspecting the item:

And i have found this property...
How can I read this property? Any ideas?

Thanks for help.

Hi Serge,

Do you pass an instance of the TaskItem class to the GetProperty function (not a MAPIOBJECT)?

Please note that the mentioned property may have different numeric ID on another PC (aka named property).

Hello Eugene,

Yes, i have passed TaskItem object from 


OutlookRoutine.Instance.MapiItemsHandler.ProcessCurrentInspectorItem(...)

also tried to pass item from 


var accessor = new AddinExpress.MAPI.ADXMAPIStoreAccessor();
accessor.Initialize(true);
var item = accessor.GetMapiItem(oMAPIObject) //oMAPIObject is Outlook._TaskItem

but had the same no result..

I have read web.mailana.com/exchangedocs/[MS-OXOTASK].pdf and used id from there.. with no result.

- "Please note that the mentioned property may have different numeric ID on another PC (aka named property)."
so, i need to somehow get ID of "TaskDeadOccurrence" property and then try to get it value? Have you tried to do this in .NET managed code? any suggestions?

Thanks, Serhiy.

Hi Serge,

No, didn't try to use it in a managed code. You can try to use http://dimastr.com/redemption/ instead.
