BCM object model?

[Ronald van Aalten]

Has Microsoft released a BCM object model (like the Outlook Object model or
CDO object model)? If so where can I find it and what reference do I have to
add to my VB project in order to access the object model?

There is no BCM-specific API. You can use the Outlook object model to access
BCM items through the Outlook folders. Or you can use ADO to access the MSDE
database tables where BCM stores its raw data, but the structure and
relationships among those tables are not documented.

Thanks Sue,

By using the Outlook object model I won't be able to access the BCM specific
objects and properties. I just took a look with OutlookSpy and saw that most
(all?) properties are implemented as extended mapi named properties so with
redemption I should be able to access them.

Most also are exposed as Outlook custom properties, IIRC.
