How to Delete some item from outlook using ?

[Yanshof]

I don't know if this is the right forum to ask this question - but i did nto
find any better forum in code project.


I writing code in C++ and im using com to contol the microsoft outlook.
I try to delete some mail or some appointment with some specific subject or
with some specific body or data from outlook.

But i did not find any good way to do it beside scan all the
mail/appointment in the Outlook:lFolderXXX( XXX is mail folder - like inbox
/ outbox / olFolderCalendar) and compare with the data that i looking for -
and if they are equals then Delete the mail/appointment item.

So i need some "smart" way to find the right item checking each item ..
because scan all the appointment can be a lot of work.

That's too broad a question: some subject or body or data.

For Subject or most other data properties in Outlook you can use the Find or
Restrict methods on the Items collection of the folder. See the Outlook VBA
Object Browser Help on Restrict to see what properties you can't use with
Find or Restrict.

For the item Body or HTMLBody you would need to load each item and parse the
Body or HTMLBody property looking for whatever it is you're looking for.
