RDODocumentItem object

 

RDODocumentItem represents any document other than a Microsoft Outlook item as an item in an Outlook folder. RDODocumentItem is derived from the RDOMail object and as such inherits all the properties, methods and events implemented by the RDOMail object and adds the following methods and properties

 

Everywhere RDOMail object is normally returned (RDOSession.GetMessageFromID, RDOFolder.Items, etc), RDODocumentItem will be returned if the message class is "IPM.Document.*".

 

 

The example below creates a new document item form a file

set Session = CreateObject("Redemption.RDOSession")
Session.MAPIOBJECT = Application.Session.MAPIOBJECT
set Folder = Session.GetDefaultFolder(olFolderDrafts)
set Msg = Folder.Items.Add("IPM.Document")
Msg.SetDocument("Z:\Temp\image001.jpg")
Msg.Save

The following below creates or opens a folder in Outlook and copies all files from the specified file folder to Outlook.

Note that RDOItems.Add allows to pass a a fully qualified file name (instead of the message class) and returns a valid RDODocumenttem object with all of its properties appropriately populated.

set Session = CreateObject("Redemption.RDOSession")
Session.MAPIOBJECT = Application.Session.MAPIOBJECT
set ParentFolder = Session.Stores.DefaultStore.IPMRootFolder
set Folder = ParentFolder.Folders.Item("Documents")
if (Folder Is Nothing) Then
    set Folder = ParentFolder.Folders.Add("Documents")
End If
set Items = Folder.Items
set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set FileFolder = fso.GetFolder("Z:\Users\dmitry\Documents")
Set files = FileFolder.Files
For Each f in files
    set Doc = Items.Add(f.Path)
    Doc.Save
Next
