Default Setting the extended File Properties on an msg file

Hi Group.

I have a wish from my users that a msg file that I create as part of a
Outlook 2000 add-in should have the Author, Title and so on specified.
I have found the DSOfile sample but even that sample will not set the
extended file properties on an OL msg file.
Is that another way to do it, please ?


best regards

Hi Kasper,
Why don't you just use MailToFile? It archives email as msg file and
set the normal file properties and creates some customproperties.
Check www.mailtofile.com/en/

Hi Frank and thanks for the suggestion, however the Outlook Add-in
that I work on is an business specific solution and the location where
the msg files should be stored depends on parameters from another
application. So I just have to get hold of a modified DSOFile as it
seems that the MS publiced version contains a bug. It will not allow
any extended property to be specified UNLESS one of the other extended
properties has been defined.


best regards

Kasper

The modified DSOfile.dll is available at http://jeolmeun.blogspot.com/
2006/02/solution-dsofiledll-permission-denied.html

So far I have not seen any side effects.
