Communication with MSOutLook

Classic Servoy
1

Hi

Is there any way we can communicate with MSOutlook (Not using It2be plugin ).
My requirement is like while I create any contact in my account(in servoy), then that contact will also get created in my MSoutlook account. :oops:

Thanks,
Satya

You can use the COM Plugin for this, see Overview - COM Plugin - ServoyForge

Thanks for the suggestion.

But as there is no proper documentation I could not able to proceed forward. Would you like to share some sample code to connect with MSOutlook 2013 and 2010 ?

I am using the below code but it generating exception.
var com = plugins.servoyguy_servoycom.getNewClientJSCOM(“Outlook.Application”);

The exception is “com.jacob.com.ComFailException: Can’t get object clsid from progid”

Thanks,
Satya

That’s exactly the same call we do. Is Outlook properly installed on your system?

There is a ticket ,with some sample code from a user here: https://www.servoyforge.net/issues/655

com.jacob.com.ComFailException: Can’t get object clsid from progid

That usually means its not installed properly on your machine.

If you search for that message on google, you’ll find some help. Its not really part of the plugin, as the plugin is just a wrapper for jacob. Generally that error means its looking in the windows registry for the progid of “Outlook.Application” and attempting to find the clsid for it, which can’t be found. That should happen when you install Outlook on your machine, it should register itself in the registry, and then the progid and clsid should be found. I’d suggest reinstalling outlook
