It sure sounds like a permission issue...

Here are the details -

Error Number= -2147024891
Description=Error in IMAPIProp::SaveChanges: MAPI_E_NO_ACCESS
Source-Redemption.RDOAddressEntry

The loop through was just a sample. I might have to modify details for
more
than 1 users in the GAL. Hence in the case below I was just experimenting
with my username to check if the Save works.

So this definately looks like an access issue. So if I want this to work I
should be running the same script from the "Administrator" logon - Is that
correct ?

Why do you need to loop through items in a list instead of just modifying
the RDOSession.CurrentUser object?

I tried a simple example as below but come across the mentioned error -
Redemption.RDOAddressEntry: Error calling IMAPIProp::SetProps

For Each objAddressEntry In objAddressEntries
If(objAddressEntry.Fields(CdoPR_DISPLAY_NAME)=Sess ion.CurrentUser)Then
objAddressEntry.Fields(CdoPR_TITLE) = "Test"
objAddressEntry.Save
End If
Next
Does this have to do with access rights ?

Of course, just set the the relevant properties using

Thanks veyr much Dmitry and Ken.
Is it possible to update the GAL entries using redemption ? Or do we
have
to
switch back to CDO ? Please let me know of any samples available
online.

news Hi,

I am using the redemption object to connect to the GAL and read
each
item
with its attributes like Name,Department,telephone etc.

Below is the script I tried -

objAddressEntry.Fields seems to be failing (does not find the
collection) -
Any particular reason ? Where as objAddressEntry.Name seems to
work
fine
and
returns the name of the group or contact from the GAL.

Also how can I update the GAL ? (as a next step)

Const CdoPR_GIVEN_NAME = &H3A06001F
Const CdoPR_TITLE = &H3A17001E

set Session = CreateObject("Redemption.RDOSession")
Session.Logon
set AddrList = Session.AddressBook.AddressLists.Item("Global
Address
List")
MsgBox "There are " & AddrList.AddressEntries.Count & " items in
the
GAL"

Set objAddressEntries = AddrList.AddressEntries
int i=0

For Each objAddressEntry In objAddressEntries
on error resume next
Set objAddressFields = objAddressEntry.Fields
MsgBox objAddressEntry.Name
If Not objAddressFields is Nothing Then
MsgBox objAddressFields.Item(CdoPR_GIVEN_NAME).Value
MsgBox objAddressFields.Item(CdoPR_TITLE).Value
End If
Next

Hi,

Havent really managed to get rid of this permissioin issue. Does my NT logon
or Username have to be given some specific permission using Active Directory
? Can you please specify what needs to be done to gain permissions on the GAL
?

Also tried with an "Administrative" account but failed to work
