MS Office Forum / Outlook / Programming Add-Ins / November 2005Using mailObj.save while attachment is opened
I currently have a COM addin written in VB6 for Outlook 2002. I am using the mailObj.save function which works fine, but if the mail contains an attachment that the user has open at the same time, Outlook displays a message: "An attachment to this message may be currently open in another program. If you continue, you may lose any changes you have made to the attachment using the other program. Do you want to continue?" Is there any way to programatically detects for this situation, before Outlook shows the above message? TIA The only way I know of to detect that would be to iterate all windows that are open in Windows using the Win32 API functions and see if any have captions that match the attachment name.
