controlling outlook

[zyzjacky]

Hi Guys, I would like to know if there are some good tutorials about how js can accessing and control outlook. I managed to use activex to get contacts from it. but it's not enough, i also would like to know how to search and send email using js, and even add event to calendar. Can any of you help me with this? Some code examples will be great!
Thanks in advance.

Unless you are using ActiveX (which is Windows IE only), then I do not believe you will have any luck whatsoever doing any of the tasks you are trying to do.

Make sure your web page and css validates properly against the doctype you have chosen - before you attempt to debug a problem!

yes, i am using the activex, and only win IE, actually it's a TWebBrowser component in my application, it's IE, so i don't have to worry about other Browser. I cannot find any good tutorials on this.

looking at code like that at

it looks like once you have the ActiveX session you should be able to use standard VBA to do what you need.
