Add attachments linked to elements of the outlook folder system
The special text path link is realy a nice way. That's exactly the mode I do
it at the moment. But the strings become long and longer
and...look%20verry%20crypticly%20for%20the%20users, you now.
Patrick Jox described a creation method over the EntryID and it seems to
work. The example adds the link of the current open item. So I hope by
retrieving any other EntryID/StoreID it will work as well.
.
.
set oAttachments = oMessage.Attachments
set oAttachedItem = oNS.GetItemFromID(item.EntryID,
item.parent.StoreID)
oAttachments.Add oAttachedItem, 4, , oMessage.Subject
.
.
Nowhere explained, but the return object of the GetItemFromID method will be
accepted as a valid address for the attached item!
