Microsoft Outlook Programming, Jumpstart for Administrators, Developers, and Power Users

It is not perfect. One complain is that the first part is too easy and is aimed for total beginners and then there is the second part where a lot of material is presented too fast. I wished that the book spent less time with very basic (pun intended) VBA stuff but takes more time to make the transition to more advanced topics smoother.

Other than that, the book contains a lot of code that can easily be reused such as in my C++ tutorial that shows how to automate Outlook from a C++ program.

would wish if your code for download was built for VC2002 or is the source code available somwhere for total build on compiler of choice?

Hi Biji,

I have updated the src zip file at http://www.olivierlanglois.net/Outlook_Automation_with_cpp.html to include the cpp files contained into mfcpp.lib.

All you have to do is to add these files in the list of files to compile and remove the dependency on the lib file. It should be fine now. Just let me know if you still have unresolved linker errors.

Greetings,
Olivier

I want you to find in this blog informations about C++ programming that I had a hard time to find in the first place on the web.
