Mapping WDS search results to Outlook email objects Michael H 01-05-2006

Hi all,

When I query against the WDS, I receive many hits from e-mail messages
in my Outlook 2003. I've been looking at the various columns returned
by WDS and trying to retrieve the e-mail body specific to each
specific return result. The Url column returns results like


mapi://LocalHost/Default/Mailbox - Michael Jordan ($ce04)/Sent
Items/v00????????7????????0??0????????0??0

mapi://LocalHost/Default/Mailbox - Michael Jordan ($ce04)/Sent
Items/v00????????7????????0??0????????0??0/AT=05910000:My Budget.xls



I'm hoping that I can map this directly to the Outlook emails as the
WDS GUI does in the preview pane. I've been looking into the Interop
DLL for Outlook and MAPI. I've been just finding dead ends, so far.

Well, for those who stumble past this in the future I've figured out
that the 35 characters after the last \v represent the 520 bits of the
MailItem.EntryID as 16bit characters. A little formatting needed to be
done to derive the actual MailItem.EntryID from the WDS RecordSet.Url
field but it seems doable.
