MAPI sample needed

Asked by: long8

Hi,

Can some one give me a sample code or library (may be commercial) that allows my program to open new message in edit window and attach some file(s) in default mail client installed (Like as if you right-click a file in Windows explorer and clicked "Send to").

Thanks in advance!

// Example 1:
// Send a mail message containing a file and prompt for
// recipients, subject, and note text.

ULONG err;
MapiFileDesc attachment = {0, // ulReserved, must be 0
0, // no flags; this is a data file
(ULONG)-1, // position not specified
"c:\\tmp\\tmp.wk3", // pathname
"budget17.wk3", // original filename
NULL}; // MapiFileTagExt unused
// Create a blank message. Most members are set to NULL or 0 because
// MAPISendMail will let the user set them.
MapiMessage note = {0, // reserved, must be 0
NULL, // no subject
NULL, // no note text
NULL, // NULL = interpersonal message
NULL, // no date; MAPISendMail ignores it
NULL, // no conversation ID
0L, // no flags, MAPISendMail ignores it
NULL, // no originator, this is ignored too
0, // zero recipients
NULL, // NULL recipient array
1, // one attachment
&attachment}; // the attachment structure

err = MAPISendMail (0L, // use implicit session.
0L, // ulUIParam; 0 is always valid
&note, // the message being sent
MAPI_DIALOG, // allow the user to edit the message
0L); // reserved; must be 0
if (err != SUCCESS_SUCCESS )
printf("Unable to send the message\n");
