Hello Im updating a UWP app that we use in ouroffice.
Before when we use it to send email it uses the Windows.ApplicationModel.Email.EmailMessage
however this i really limited. So i would like to use Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook
instead to create the email directly with outlook
My test code looks like this.
try
{
List<string> lstAllRecipients = new List<string>();
//Below is hardcoded - can be replaced with db data
lstAllRecipients.Add("info@test.com");
//lstAllRecipients.Add("chandan.kumarpanda@testmail.com");
Outlook.Application outlookApp = new Outlook.Application();
Outlook._MailItem oMailItem = (Outlook._MailItem)outlookApp.CreateItem(Outlook.OlItemType.olMailItem);
Outlook.Inspector oInspector = oMailItem.GetInspector;
// Thread.Sleep(10000);
// Recipient
Outlook.Recipients oRecips = (Outlook.Recipients)oMailItem.Recipients;
foreach (String recipient in lstAllRecipients)
{
Outlook.Recipient oRecip = (Outlook.Recipient)oRecips.Add(recipient);
oRecip.Resolve();
}
////Add CC
//Outlook.Recipient oCCRecip = oRecips.Add("THIYAGARAJAN.DURAIRAJAN@testmail.com");
//oCCRecip.Type = (int)Outlook.OlMailRecipientType.olCC;
//oCCRecip.Resolve();
//Add Subject
oMailItem.Subject = "Test Mail";
// body, bcc etc...
//Display the mailbox
oMailItem.Display(true);
}
catch (Exception objEx)
{
await new MessageDialog(objEx.Message, "Error email to Outlook").ShowAsync();
}
I have added the Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.dll version to the app by finding it in C:\Windows\assembly\GAC_MSIL\Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook\15.0.0.0__71e9bce111e9429c\Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.dll it is file version 15.0.4569.1507
My problem is when i run the code i get the following error
Creating an instance of the COM component with CLSID {0006F03A-0000-0000-C000-000000000046} using CoCreateInstanceFromApp failed due to the following error: 80040154 Class not registered (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80040154 (REGDB_E_CLASSNOTREG)). Please make sure your COM object is in the allowed list of CoCreateInstanceFromApp.
I guees i have to add a reference in the appxmanifest how ever i cannot figure out what.
