Hi all,
Via client side JavaScript I need to detect whether Outlook 2002 or
2003 is installed on a client machine. How can I do that using
JavaScript?
Thanks,

You can't. Client-side Javascript is built with security features to stop
people snooping around on their visitors' systems.
However there is an HTML solution. Something like this should do the trick:
===
<FORM action="...">
<P>Do you have Outlook 2002/2003 installed?</P>
<P><LABEL><INPU T type="radio" name="have_oe" value="no" checked>
No</LABEL><BR>
<LABEL><INPUT type="radio" name="have_oe" value="yes"> Yes</LABEL></P>
<P><INPUT type="submit" value="Submit"> </P>
</FORM>
===

You don't. You can't - security measures stop you snooping on a client
system at all. em********@yaho o.com (Emil Frank) wrote in message news:<6d******* *************** ****@posting.go ogle.com>... Hi all,

Hi,
Hmm...on the other side there are Java Script utilities available that
allow to detect whether Office or MS Messenger is installed on the
client side.
See: http://silkworth.net/browser_os/plugs.html
So I was wondering whether the same could be done for Outlook?
Thanks,

The page you mentioned just checks for browser plug-ins. But even that can't
be done reliably. In fact all I get from this page is a string of Javascript
errors, which is kind of funny in a way because I'm actually using Internet
Explorer.

They seem to be doing the work Visual Basic.
<script type="text/vbscript"><!--
on error resume next
Function CanCreate(ctlNa me)
And use:
r = new ActiveXObject(c tlName);
Glad I use Netscape as my browser.

Use an HTA (jscript). You have a lot more options there.
This cannot be done without supressing normal javascript security, which an
HTA is not subject to. I assume this is for an intranet app. Any other use,
you really can't.

Hi,
Thanks for your help!
Can you please point me to a few JScript samples that illustrate how
this could be done!
Thanks in advance,

Just upgraded from Outlook 2002 to 2003 for my email reader. And emails I
get from a PERL script now display the $eol written in PERL as a space
instead of a carriage return and line feed as they did in Outlook 2002.
What is going on? Should this code be something other then $eol in PERL to
satisfy a majority of email readers?

I have a script which sends emails through Access. It sends these emails as
if it was sent through Outlook. I had no problem with this using Office 2000
but with the newer Outlook 2002 it asks if I want to send the email
(Yes/No/Cancel). And sometimes you don't see it asking you this. How do I
tell Outlook 2002 to send it without asking?

Hi,
I want to mimic Ms Outlook 2002/2003's To, Cc and Bcc TextBoxes. That
is, I want to be able to underline part of the text in the TextBox.
Since I can't imagine that .Net's TextBox is able to do this, I tend to
use RichTextBox, but it isn't XP themed.
Here's my questions:

How do you check for the existence of new/unread email in Microsoft
Outlook 2002 using the Outlook Object Model with COM Interop, and not
using MAPI/CDO to go to the Exchange server?
For e.g this snippet uses CDOSYS for Win NT, but I want to use the
Outlook Object Model and check at the client (using the
inspector/explorer object) and not at the server.
