Hi All, [Outlook 2000]
I have a custom form that I am using to send email from my application.
In the send event, I try to get all the email addresses to which the mail is
being sent to. But instead of email addresses, I am only getting their
names [if they are already stored in the address book].

Is there any way I can get the actual email address and not the name?

TIA
 
Iterate the Recipients collection. Each Recipient has an Address property,
as well as a name.
 
Hi Sue,
Thanks for the response, but....
when I tried to get the recipients information, it is not returning the
email addresses but a string, something like this:

/o=companyname/ou=exchangename/cn=recipients/cn=myemailid

is it possible to get the complete email address from the above string.

Thanks again.

To get the SMTP address from an Exchange sender or recipient, use CDO or
Redemption and the PR_EMAIL (&H39FE001E) MAPI property to obtain the SMTP
address from the AddressEntry object. See
http://www.outlookcode.com/d/code/getsenderaddy.htm#redemption and
http://www.cdolive.com/cdo5.htm#EMailAddressOfSender for examples.
