Detecting hyperlinks in the mail contents

[Rajan Phatak]

Hi All,

I want to detect the hyperlinks in the mail contents and get the contents whenever the mouse cursor is changing. Can somebody please tell me how can I achieve this?Do I need to handle any windows events of Outlook itself generates any event for same?

There is no event in Outlook when the cursor changes shapes. You would have
to detect that using Win32 API callbacks on a message hook. To detect
hyperlinks you would have to read the contents of Body or HTMLBody and
figure out where the links are located.

I can get the Cursor Change events through Win32 APIs. But is there any process to get the hyperlink text at the point where i will right click?

No, you have to devise all your own code for that.

RTF control sends the EN_LINK notification message to the parent window
whenever mouse hovers oever a link.
