| Question |
| MERs with Microsoft Visual Basic (VB) or VB. NET applications might want to integrate Lotus Notes e-mail functionality. is there an example of how to create a notes e-mail from Visual Basic? |

| Answer |
| The following Microsoft Visual Basic 6 (VB6) code sends a notes e-mail message. it includes des examples of code to include an attachment and to save the sent message, which are both optional and can be removed if desired. Important Note:This is sample code, provided only to restrict strate one way to approach this issue. IBM support will not be able to customize this script for a customer's own configuration. while this may work for some MERs it is offered as a suggestion only, and is not something that IBM Lotus software supports further.
Dim maildb as object
Dim maildoc as object
Dim body as object
Dim session as object
'Start a session to notes
Set session = Createobject ("Lotus. notessession ")
'This line prompts for password of current ID noted in notes. ini
Call session. initialize
'Or use below to supply password of the current ID
'Call session. initialize ("<password> ")
'Open the mail database in notes
Set maildb = session. getdatabase ("", "C:/Notes/data/mail/mymail. nsf ")
If not maildb. isopen = true then
Call maildb. Open
End if
'Create the mail document
Set maildoc = maildb. createdocument
Call maildoc. replaceitemvalue ("form", "memo ")
'Set the recipient
Call maildoc. replaceitemvalue ("sendto", "John Doe ")
'Set subject
Call maildoc. replaceitemvalue ("subject", "subject text ")
'Create and set the body content
Set body = maildoc. createrichtextitem ("body ")
Call body. appendtext ("body text here ")
'Example to create an attachment (optional)
Call body. addnewline (2)
Call body. embedobject (1454, "", "C:/FILENAME", "attachment ")
'Example to save the message (optional)
Maildoc. savemessageonsend = true
'Send the document
'Gets the mail to appear in the Sent Items folder
Call maildoc. replaceitemvalue ("posteddate", now ())
Call maildoc. Send (false)
'Clean up
Set maildb = nothing
Set maildoc = nothing
Set body = nothing
Set session = nothing
Note:The Visual Basic programmer needs to set the reference to use Lotus Domino objects prior to implementing this function. to enable the Lotus Notes classes to appear in the Visual Basic browser, you must execute the following within VB: Select Tools, references and select the checkbox for 'Lotus notes automation class '. |
