Microsoft MIME Parser

[jeremiorama]

Hi there,

I would like to know a place where I could get some information about how Microsoft parses MIME documents. Does anyone knows or has an idea where I could find such information?

Thanks a lot,

Thank you very much,

I would like to know if there is a method for detecting types of files? I would like to know whether or not a file is of MIME type.

Thanks,

jeremiorama,
You can duplicate what IE does using an API call, here is a place to start (it has VB6 code which would need to be ported to VBA if you want to use it in Access) PINVOKE.NET: FindMimeFromData (urlmon).

Hope this helps,

Hey thanks again,

But I have this little application that needs to know if a document is a MIME. Is there any method that can tell whether or not it is one?

I tried FindMimeFromData(...); but it's not exactly what I want to do, since this method does not check for document's validity as a MIME document.

Anyone has an idea? (By the way, I'm coding in C++ and know not much about VB)

Thanks a lot,
