Sending appointment not using default profile

[David]

Hey all, I've search all the forum, tried many solution, but none of them
works for me

Here's my problem. I'm developping an application in VB6 that must send
appointment using Outlook ( we're using MicrosoftExchange ).

The problem is that i have two profiles bind to my outlook.
1-My regular profiles for my mail ( default ) called : MainProfile
2-The one that need to send all appointments called : AppointmentProfile

Whenever i try to send an appointment, it always use Mainprofile to send it,
even if i specified AppointmentProfile in the logon.

Note that the 'When starting Outlook use this profile' option in Outlook is
pointing at MainProfile in case it matters.

Thanks all for you help!!!

[CODE START HERE]
Dim olApp As outlook.Application
Dim olNs As outlook.NameSpace
Dim olCal As outlook.mapiFolder
Dim mapiSession As mapi.Session

Set olApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
Set olNs = olApp.GetNamespace("MAPI")
Set olCal = olNs.GetDefaultFolder(olFolderCalendar)
Set mapiSession = New mapi.Session

mapiSession.Logon "AppointmentProfile", "", False

Dim olAppt As outlook.AppointmentItem
Set olAppt = olApp.CreateItem(olAppointmentItem)

(... fill the appointment ... )

olAppt.Send
olAppt.Save

mapiSession.Logoff

Set mapiSession = Nothing

Under the Outlook object model, only one mail profile can be running at a time. If Outlook is already running, you can't perform a logon to another profile. For your scenario, you would need to use CDO 1.21 or, to avoid security prompts, Redemption (http://www.dimastr.com/redemption/) instead of Outlook objects.

Hi sue, thanks for the help.

What's the difference with Outlook object and CDO1.21 object?

Do you have any example of CDO1.21 session logon ?

I'll try to find some article on CDO1.21, i'll be back later

Thanks again!!

CDO is a lower-level API. You can get lots of information on it and the Session.Logon method at http://www.cdolive.com

Thanks a lot Sue.

It works perfectly.

Using CDO, I'm able to send/delete any appointment in Outlook using my 2nd
profile.

You're the best

Best regards

David
