How can I open outlook message window in wpf?

Anonymous User 6008 19-Aug-2013
Hi!

I have a wpf application and I'd like it to use Outlook to send messages any user.

I don't want to send them programmatically though; I just want to open

The New Message window, set the recipients and leave it there for the

User to finish filling out.

What classes am I looking for?

please help me thanks in advance!

Hi!

You can firstly add reference to the Outlook Interop and after that write below line of code where you want to open a Outlook message window in wpf.

Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.Application outlookApp = new Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.Application();
            Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.MailItem message =
            (Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.MailItem)outlookApp.CreateItem(Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.OlItemType.olMailItem);
            message.Subject = "Testing Mail!";
            message.Recipients.Add("some@email.com");
            message.Body = "Hello. This is body area, write your mail here.";
            //int attachmentLocation = 1;
            //message.Attachments.Add(fileName, Outlook.OlAttachmentType.olByValue,attachmentLocation, displayName);
            message.Display(false);

thanks.
