get attachment file data sd <dshubhangi[ at ]gmail.com> 11/20/2008 2:02:53 PM hello I'm using VSTO SE Outlook add in for Outlook 2007 using vb.net.I need to get attachment details - MIME content type,content subtype & the file data itself. I used redemption to get content type,subtype using field value &H370E001E of safemailItem attachment.But was not able to get attachment file data. Is there any way to get attachment file data without saving the file & then getting its data? thanks

Re: get attachment file data "Ken Slovak - [MVP - Outlook]" <kenslovak[ at ]mvps.org> 11/20/2008 2:39:39 PM The actual binary data for the attachment is stored in PR_ATTACH_DATA_BIN. That property is a PT_BINARY. However, that may be encoded in some way so the usual method is to save out the attachment to the file system and work with it from there. -- Ken Slovak [MVP - Outlook] http://www.slovaktech.com Author: Professional Programming Outlook 2007.

Re: get attachment file data "Ken Slovak - [MVP - Outlook]" <kenslovak[ at ]mvps.org> 11/21/2008 4:18:51 PM Sure. Just trap the item.Send() event and in that event handler first save the item being sent, then access its Attachments collection and proceed the same way. -- Ken Slovak [MVP - Outlook] http://www.slovaktech.com Author: Professional Programming Outlook 2007.
