continue to ask: I use MAPI to retrieve Outlook Contact's comment, but if the content in comment to long, will return MAPI_E_NOT_ENOUGH_MEMORY error

Question

I could not reply in the old question, so I open one discussion.

I have already use the following code:

char *bodybuf=0;
    unsigned int bodysize=0;
    IStream *istream;

//I also have tried PR_HTML

   hr = imsg->OpenProperty(PR_BODY_HTML, &IID_IStream, 0, 0, (IUnknown**)&istream);
    if (hr==S_OK)
    {
        STATSTG stg = {0};
        hr = istream->Stat(&stg,STATFLAG_NONAME);
        if (hr==S_OK)
        {
            bodysize = stg.cbSize.HighPart;
            bodybuf = new char[bodysize+1];
            ULONG red;
            hr = istream->Read(bodybuf, bodysize, &red);
            if (hr!=S_OK)
                bodysize=0;
            else if (red<bodysize)
                bodysize=red;
            bodybuf[bodysize]=0;
        }
        istream->Release();
    }


but the bodysize is also 0, also the notes of contact is not empty.

Could the pr_html indicates the notes attribute of contact in MAPI?

Thank you very much.

Answer 1

Contacts and appointments in Outlook do not use HTML, only RTF - you are limited in PR_BODY and PR_RTF_COMPRESSED.

Look at a contact with MFCMAPI or OutlookSpy (click IMessage).
