Connecting outlook through C#.NET Application

I am new to Outlook programming. I want to access outlook from my C#
application and get the information such as contacts, mails, appointments etc
I can able to connect to outlook using Microsoft.outlo ok11 com libraries,
I am getting a security message as below,

"A program is trying to access e-mail address you have stored in outlook. Do
you want to allow this?"
"If this is unexpected, it may be a virus and you should choose no"
"Allow Access for __ minute"

But I want to suppress that security warning, while i am accessing the
outlook.

If it is not possible to suppress this message. Is there any way to set
maximum allowed time and opt for "Yes" by programatically ?

Dhans,

Unfortunately, no, there isn't a way to do this. The whole point is to
prevent malicious software from accessing outlook to send emails and whatnot
on your behalf. There isn't any way to get around it.

Hope this helps.

Can anyone provide a small snippet in C# that pulls out the Contacts in Outlook XP. I've seen a couple of examples in C++ and VB in previous newsgroup posts, but either the originals didn't work or my conversion skills are weak. And if I have to use tlbimp.exe what is the right file to use. Thanks for the help. -- Fritz

Hi everyone. Having problems with a utility I am writing for work. The previous IT Director thoughtfully allowed 3 (2000, xp, 2003) versions of outlook to be installed rather than 1. Now I need the utility to work for all 3 versions. A previous post suggested creating objects to detect the version of outlook, which I tried with success. But, that's as far as I can get. No one out there shows how to go beyond version detection to...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
