Dear all,
I'm currently writing a Persona Menu smart tag in Outlook 2003. I use
dynamic caption and intend to modify the "Additional Actions" sub-menu
depending on the contact(in the MAPIFolder) that the tag is referring
to.
Problem occurs in the mapping of the tag and OL contact. All
information I can find from the smart tag action DLL(with
ISmartTagAction2 interface) is just the tagged text string from
get_VerbCaptionFromID2() but not the entity object that calls the
persona menu. So my way to complete the chain is to :
1) search the sender and recipients' "display name" in the mailItem
that matches the text string I've obtained
2) then map the sender/recipient's email address with those in the
contacts
However, the mapping in 1) is not necessarily unique, right?(I've
tried successfully to create two contacts with same "display as"
field)
Do anyone have any idea of completing the chain? Did I miss some
information that can be obtained in the action DLL? Or is there a
different way? A million thanks in advance!
Regards,
Albert
