MS Office Forum / Outlook / Programming VBA / November 2006Any API for "scanpst.exe"?
Is there any Object Model or API to programmatically avail the functionality of “scanpst.exe”? No, there isn't.

Hi Sue, Can we know the structure of PST? How emails are stored within a PST and what happens with deleted emails? Basically I have to write a program to recover permanently deleted emails. Please let me know if there is any relevent information. Thanks in advance. > No, there isn't. > > > Is there any Object Model or API to programmatically avail the functionality > > of “scanpst.exe”? The structure of .pst files is undocumented.

Hi Sue Is there any interface or API in existence that will allow email extraction from a PST file? Basically, we want to extract emails from a .PST to load into a different system, the key is getting to those emails. Is this possible? > The structure of .pst files is undocumented. > [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > >> > Is there any Object Model or API to programmatically avail the functionality > >> > of “scanpst.exe”? Yes, the usual suspects: The Outlook object model, CDO, Redemption, Extended MAPI. I'm also heard of a third-party API that does not require Outlook, but does require $$$$$, but it was so ridiculously expensive as to be not worth jotting down the URL.
