I don't think you can do that because of the outlook security but in case I'm wrong and you don't get a response here on CP, There is an Outlook forum here, with a vb.net section:

The play list configuration allows the user to generate as many play list as possible.Each play list is a series of contents which plays one after another. A play list is an xml file that contains the list of files to play.The system shall also allow the operator to preview the play list and allow him to 'fast forward'. The following contents are supported:
- scrolling text with different properties
- powerpoint slide show.
- images, logos , photos,animations..
- Video ( MPEG1,MPEG2,AVI,Quicktime movie,Real video,Microsoft Windows video...)
Thanks for guidance.

Are you developing a PlayList or a Player to play the items in the PlayList?
What are you having the problem with?

A playlist 
Thanks for guidance.

OK. A playlist is nothing but a bunch of filenames, preferrably fully qualified paths. You can do that with an array or collection.
Dim playList As ArrayList
playList.Add("C:\playthis\song.wma")

Now you've got a HUGE problem. Each of the file types you want to support is a different file format and requires different components to understand and play that format. If you want to write an app to "play" all these formats, you'll have to figure out which components to use to play each file extension. Each file will have different requirements, and different controls, for controlling the playback.
You could write your application to launch the manufacturers player for all these formats, if they're all installed.
Another option would be to design your application as a plug-in framework. Each plug-in supporting a different file format. This method is going to be FAR more complex though.

What's the code for Vb.Net to open a dialog window, and after choosing a file, you will copy that particular file to a pre-determined location?
|
|
|
|
|
Dim dlg As New OpenFileDialog()
dlg.ShowDialog()
|
|
|
|
|
So how do i code it to copy the chosen file to another destination?
|
|
|
|
|
IO.File.Copy(sourcefile, desinationfile)
so i guess i would be something like:
Dim dlg As New OpenFileDialog()
If dlg.ShowDialog() = DialogResult.OK
IO.File.Copy(dlg.FileName, desinationfile)
End If
|
|
|
|
|
<br />
Dim dlg as New OpenFileDialog<br />
if dlg.ShowDialog() = DialogResult.Ok then<br />
System.IO.File.Copy(dlg.FileName, "C:\")<br />
EndIf<br />
' Will copy the chosen file to C:\<br />
|
|

|

Thanks guys..another question..
Can i change the filename while copying the file to the new location? So that it will be renamed when it is copied to the new location?
|
|
|
|
|
|
Hmm..but it doesn't teach us how to rename a file? Sorry but i'm really weak in Vb.Net >.<

Copy the code and run it.
<italic>Work hard, Work effectively.

Private Sub MenuItem16_Click(ByVal sender as System.Object,ByVal e as EventArgs)Handles MenuItem16.Click
Dim FileDialog As OpenFileDialog
Dim Test As New Test 'The Test class from MSDN
if FileDialog.ShowDialog() = DialogResults.Ok then
Test.Main()
End If
There's no build error, but after I chose a file from the dialog box, no file was copied to the new location  What's my problem here?
Dim dlg as New OpenFileDialog
if dlg.ShowDialog() = DialogResult.Ok then
System.IO.File.Copy(dlg.FileName, "C:\")
EndIf
' Will copy the chosen file to C:\
I tried this as well, but after clicking OK in the dialog box, it gives an error indicating "Directory Exists", so i couldn't copy my chosen file to C:\ as well...why?

Yah, this will create a text file in C:\...but what if the user chooses other types of files? (.exe, .pdf) I tried choosing an .exe file, but it creates a .txt file, using notepad to read the .exe file.
Dim dlg as New OpenFileDialog
if dlg.ShowDialog() = DialogResult.Ok then
System.IO.File.Copy(dlg.FileName, "C:\" + dlg.FileName)
EndIf
I tried this, but it gives an error indicating "The given path's format is not supported".

Do you mean you want do copy file dynamically, where the user can choose which file to be copied and where? 
If the file you want to copy is .exe then the destination file must also .exe
so System.IO.File.Copy(dlg.FileName, "C:\a.exe")
Nguyen Dinh Quy wrote:
ystem.IO.File.Copy(dlg.FileName, "C:\" + dlg.FileName)
if dlg.FileName="c:\a.txt" then the destination file you use
"C:\" + dlg.FileName, then it means that you're copying file to "C:\c:\a.txt".

Ahh i guess my first post was horribly phased 
Anyway yah, users can choose from the dialog box which files to be copied, but the location where the files are copied to is fixed. With "Files", i mean any types of files..
e.g. User chooses Example.txt from C:\, and it is copied to D:\.So now there's C:\Example.txt and D:\Example.txt.
The 1st question here is that i don't know how to do it.

The following code will handle copying of any file extension.
<br />
Dim FileDialog As New OpenFileDialog<br />
'FileInfo class has <br />
Dim myFile as System.IO.FileInfo<br />
<br />
With FileDialog<br />
if .ShowDialog() = DialogResults.Ok then<br />
'create FileInfo instance where .Filename is the fullpath of source <br />
'file. For example: C:\Example.txt<br />
myFile = new System.IO.FileInfo(.Filename)<br />
<br />
'FileInfo.Name property indicates the file name<br />
'For example: If the source file is C:\Example.txt than the FileInfo.Name<br />
'property is Example.txt<br />
myFile.CopyTo("D:\" & myFile.Name, false)<br />
<br />
'syntax: FileInfo.CopyTo(destfilename as String, forceoverwrite as Boolean)<br />
<br />
End If<br />
End With
I hope this makes sense

DataGrid has to be bound to a DataSource before you can add and remove a row. Adding and removing of row has to be done in a recordset. Well I used VB6.0 and I used datagrid if I want to display the entire contents of a table. I the it does not require to be linked to a Datasource I use MSFlexGrid instead. I haven't explored it from VB.Net yet.
Hope this helps
