Well, there aren't very many in msoe.dll and OE is only simple MAPI
compliant.

You might take a look he

Steve,

Thank you for responding!

I would like to select an Outlook Express email in the Inbox and paste the
message into Excel2003. Is there a MAPI function in msoe.dll that could get
the message so it could be exported to Excel2003 or copy and pasted into
Excel2003?

Thanks!

Being as OE is Simple MAPI, it supports only sending. It has no
functions for accessing any of the mail folders.

You could copy and paste the text of a message into Excel, but it
probably won't be pretty because the message won't be formatted to Excel
unless the sender as specifically formatted the body for Excel.

If you also want to copy the headers, you can do that from the Message
Source (Ctrl-F3) window.

But you'll probably need to do some parsing of the data. The message
source will be the raw message as received via the Internet, according
to RFC2822.
ftp://ftp.isi.edu/in-notes/rfc2822.txt

You can also, File Save As to an EML file (includes headers) or TXT file
(message body only) if you want to get the message out of OE so that an
program can process it.

Do you know of any way to programatically do this?

1. Could you please explain what an EML file is.

2. Do you know of any way to programatically do this?

You could get the message body from the IMimeMessage interface that is
referenced in the documentation I referenced below. You can also then
program Excel to incorporate it into a spreadsheet using Office's exposed
functions.

Thanks for your response, Steve!

The documentation is for Microsoft Windows Mail (formerly Outlook Express),
the online communication tool supplied as part of Windows Vista. I am using
WindowsXP.

And EML file is the raw message as received via the Internet. The
format is described in RFC2822 (formerly RFC822)
ftp://ftp.isi.edu/in-notes/rfc2822.txt

If you do a search on RCF822, you should find utilities to process the
files
