Howto: ask Inspector to refresh its item cache
tonyl <tonyl[ at ]outblaze.com> 2/5/2007 10:14:45 AM

Hi,

I have written an application which update the content of contact and
appointment in outlook using Extended MAPI.

However, I found that once the user views the appointment A through the outlook's
inspector, the outlook will cache the content.
1. open the appointment A by outlook inspector.
2. my application update the appointment A through MAPI
3. open the appointment A by outlook inspector again. --> the content of
appointment A doesn't change.
4. open the appointment A by outlookspy, --> i can see that the properties
have been updated.

How to ask the outlook refresh the data cache after my application update
the data through MAPI?

Regards,
Tony
