IMapiTable::SortTable problem "T-rev" <trevor_getty[ at ]yahoo.com> 3/20/2007 2:02:53 PM I have a problem with the method SortTable at the moment. If I get a SortTable call simply sorting, I pass it onto the Mapi underlying table object and it sorts fine and returns S_OK. But if I try to do any form of grouping on this object it fails with MAPI_E_TOO_COMPLEX, does anyone know what may be wrong with my table object? Does it understand grouping by default, or do I need to implement my own grouping? Ie. order by subject - works fine. order by subject and grouped by subject (expanded or collapsed) - both fail. Any Ideas?

Secondly, where exactly does that table come from? You don't even say whether it is an AB table (and most of them have very limited or non-existent support for grouping) or a message store (which support grouping a lot better).

Re: IMapiTable::SortTable problem "T-rev" <trevorgetty[ at ]aol.com> 3/23/2007 2:31:25 PM Sorry I got a bit ahead of myself there. This is a 3rd party MessageStore integration, in Extended Mapi and exchange client extensions. We use the normal mapi createTable method to get an IID_IMAPITableData. We then call hrGetView to create a readonly view of this table and then create a wrapper around this so we can intercept the incoming calls. Then outlook calls back into our table object to restrict and find/sort the rows it requires. Most of the sort calls I do not need to do anything special, so I just pass it straight onto the underlying table object obtained from this view. At this point I please look at my first email. Thanks about the other newsgroup - I didn't even know it existed and I have been writing in MAPI for a few years now.

Re: IMapiTable::SortTable problem "Dmitry Streblechenko" <dmitry[ at ]dimastr.com> 3/23/2007 11:15:47 PM The ITableData interface is designed to be used for the attachment and recipient tables, for everything else you really need to provide your own implementation of IMAPITable.

Re: IMapiTable::SortTable problem "T-rev" <trevorgetty[ at ]aol.com> 3/26/2007 2:03:53 PM I think I have found a piece of txt, explaing that when groups are collapsed they are replaced by their groupHeader, and if expanded then there is a group header followed by the sorted rows equal to the header value. Are you aware of any futher information on the header format, and I assume this goes in as a row in the IMapiTable view.

Re: IMapiTable::SortTable problem "Dmitry Streblechenko" <dmitry[ at ]dimastr.com> 3/26/2007 6:31:49 PM That sounds right. You can always try to access the contents table from one of the MS store providers (such as PST) and see what it does if the same grouping is requested.
