hi,

How to change the mail message body. When i am click send option, i
have to add some more info at the end of the mail and will be send.

how can i solve this. i am using vc++6.0 and Outlook2000

Thanks in advance
 
One of the problems I had in an add in recently was that modifying the Body
property was naturally messing with HTML formatting and appending to the
HTMLBody property does not have the desired effect because you need to
"inject" into the HTML.

So I just used a very simple Regex replace to effectively insert text at the
beginning of the message (you could do the same thing with the end).

string htmlBody = email.HTMLBody;
htmlBody = Regex.Replace( htmlBody, "<body[^>]*?>", "$&" +
whateverYouWant );
email.HTMLBody = htmlBody;

You can load the HTML into the IHTMLDocument2 object and use DOM to modify
it or, if the item is already being displayed in an HTML editor, use thee
Inspector.HTMLEditor property to retrive IHTMLDocument2 interface.

Thanks, Dmitry that sounds like a much better approach. Mine was for a quick
one-off internal add in.

No, in this case you need to use the Inspector.WordEditor property which
returns an instance of the Word.Document object.

Dim MyDoc as IHtmlDocument2
....
set MyDoc = Inspector.HtmlEditor

I am not sure I understand your question, as simple as it sounds.

MessageBox(NULL,_T("This is not active inspector object"),_T("Current
Inspector"),MB_OK);

Did you make sure Pdisp is not NULL? It will be if you are using Word or
plain text editor.
