Active explorer issue
 

In Active inspector when open a mail, If add an attachment to a mail and
dont call Save function then this attachment will not update on exchange
server for this mail.

But In active explorer when select a mail we add attachment to a mail and
dont save save function. Attachment is updated on exchange server for this
mail. Is there any reason for that? Can we avoid saving? Outlook
version-2003

How are you adding an attachment in ActiveExplorer()? Is it with code or
from the UI. If using code show it.

In general you always have to save, possibly unless in-cell editing is
enabled and that affects automatically saving any changes. See if the Saved
property on the item has changed after you add the attachment in the
Explorer.

Active explorer issue
 

I'm adding attachment in code under explorer_viewchange event(when selecta
mail item). When i add attachment to a mail in ActiveExplorer-ViewChange
event, mail item save property returns false. But when i select another mail
item item and check Save property of previous mail item where i add
attachment then it returns true. It means that attachment is added on
exchange server.
How to use in-cell editing ?? Can we avoid saving if we add an attachment.
My user is exchange server user and has cached mode on.

//in c++ event number is 0xf007

Outlook::_MailItemPtr pMailItem = NULL;
Explorer_ViewChange()
{
if(pMailItem != NULL)//if we select an item before and already add
attachment to it
{
bool issaved = pMailItem-GetSaved(); //GetSaved return true
}
else
{
Outlook::SelectionPtr spSelections = ActiveExplorer-Selection;
if( spSelections)
{
int selecteditems = spSelections-Count;
if(selecteditems == 1)
{
pMailItem = spSelections-Item(1);
pMailItem -Attachments-Add("c:/filename.txt");
bool issaved = pMailItem-GetSaved(); //GetSaved
return false
}//here i dont call pMailItem-save function
}
}
}

Do you mean the ViewSwitch() event? There is no ViewChange() event. Why
aren't you using Explorer.SelectionChange(), that would be the correct event
to handle.

If you want to know whether or not an item in a Selection is changed you
handle SelectionChange(). When that fires you get the new Selection. You can
then set up handlers for each item in the Selection and handle the
AttachmentAdd() event or the BeforeAttachmentSave() event or any other
attachment related event you want to track.

So if i handle those attachment events and avoid saving then it will not
update on exchange server. But will it allow to add attachment to mail and
display in outlook when we select a mail?

i tried it but attachment still save on exchange server. I handle
beforeattachmentsave and addattachment and cancel the saving but attachment
still save on exchange server. I follow below link to avoid saving
http://codeidol.com/csharp/c-sharp-i...k-Item-Events/


To avoid saving when i select another mail i delete attachments from
previous mail and call save function. But this modify mail date. I want to
add attachment in mail without modifying its date.

I'm afraid what you want can't be done. If you modify an item it will get
some date related fields also modified. Not much you can do about that.
