Hi,
I am developping an application in C# that creates outlook contacts from
a database. For the outlook part of the application, I use the outlook
COM object (Version 11 from Office 2003). If a contact is already
present in the outlook contact
database, it should be updated. Therefore I store the outlook EntryID
when adding a contact in outlook in the corresponding database record.
When adding a contact to outlook, I first check if I can get the contact
from outlook by it's EntryID (to update it instead of adding) using
Namespace.GetIt emFromID. This is where the problem lies.
On the machine that I develop the software, everything works fine.
Outlook isn't used for anything but testing the application so no email
account is configured.
On another machine Namespace.GetIt emFromID always throws a COMException
with the message "Clientoperatio n failed", no mather if the contact
exists or not. Adding a new contact with Application.Cre ateItem works.
The major difference that I can see between the two machines is that the
latter is configured to use exchange for sharing folders includig the
contact folder I want to add the contacts in. I have tried playing with
the permissions of the default and anonymous user, as well as the user I
log in with but it doesn't change a thing.
All help would be very welcome.

Are you going thru com interop yourself, or are you using the Office2k3
primary interop assemblies?
You should be using the latter. If you are using them... not sure what
the problem would be.
can you extract an error code or further details, maybe a stack dump?

Can't check right now, but IIRC no. The COMException is thrown by
getItemFromID, that is all the stack trace says ... IIRC

Isn't there an inner exception?

When I open a new outlook email from vb.net, sometimes outlook is very slow

The previous IT Director thoughtfully allowed 3 (2000, xp, 2003)

creating objects to detect the version of outlook, which I tried with

Hi,
I'm using a thight integration with Outlook 2003 (with an Exchange server)
in my VB.NET (2005) application.
Until now I'm using the Outlook Object Model, but it appears to be very
slow, and has some problems:
- doing a Move changes the ReceivedTime of the MailItem
- I can't use RichText in the MailItem.Body (only allows plain text or HTML)
- some other stuff like having to use small 'tricks' to show the default
signature in an email

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
