How to use GetIDsFromNames(....) method ? "Wassim Dagash" <wassim.dagash[ at ]gmail.com> 1/8/2007 2:46:26 PM Im trying to use the method GetIDsFromNames (C#) but I dont know what each parameter is for: int GetIDsFromNames(object MAPIProp, string GUID, object ID, bool bCreate) I know waht are GUID and ID but I dont know what the other two parameters are, Can anyone please help me?

Re: How to use GetIDsFromNames(....) method ? "Dmitry Streblechenko" <dmitry[ at ]dimastr.com> 1/8/2007 4:57:28 PM Is that for Redemption (looks like it judging from the method signature)? The first parameter is the object (such as MailItem from the Outlook Object Model). The last parameter allows you to specify whether the mapping must be created if it's never been used before for the given message store. E.g. if you specify false, you will get back 0 if the particular combination of GUID/id has never been used. In most cases, you need to pass true.

Re: How to use GetIDsFromNames(....) method ? "Wassim Dagash" <wassim.dagash[ at ]gmail.com> 1/8/2007 5:56:21 PM Hello Dmitry, Im trying to use redemption in order to build a ristrict on the items of outlook calendar.The restriction is simple: getting all meeting in a range. I tried to use PR_START_DATE and PR_END_DATE properties for ulPropTag but it seems like not all appointments in OL calendar got these two properties ( compare by outlook spy), therfore I tried to use "start" and "end" named properties as ulPropTag , but it failed cause the name properies should be converted . Im trying to use GetIDsFromNames inorder to get this convertion. In that case I think I've some kind of "deadlock" : Im trying to use GetIDsFromNames inorder to get the item and the function needs the item as parameter. Do you have any idea how could solve this issue? I'll appreciate your help.

Re: How to use GetIDsFromNames(....) method ? "Dmitry Streblechenko" <dmitry[ at ]dimastr.com> 1/8/2007 6:18:38 PM You can check that Items.Count > 0 (otherwise there is no point using a Restriction) and pass the very first item from the folder. Or you can pass the folder itself - all Redemption cares about is that the object passed as the first parameter implements a MAPIOBJECT property.

Re: How to use GetIDsFromNames(....) method ? "Wassim Dagash" <wassim.dagash[ at ]gmail.com> 1/9/2007 9:05:43 AM Hello Dimitry, I tried to use the folder MAPIOBJECT but it seems like GetIDsFromNames returns different integer than expected (for "start" named property) , I did the following test: int n = mUtils.GetIDsFromNames(calFold.MAPIOBJECT,"{00062002-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}",0x820D,true); int m = unchecked((int) 0x80320040); m and n are supposed to be equal but they aren't.

Re: How to use GetIDsFromNames(....) method ? "Dmitry Streblechenko" <dmitry[ at ]dimastr.com> 1/9/2007 5:11:12 PM Did you test it on an item that comes from that folder?
