The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

How to switch off "propose new Time" on a Meeting with CDO?

Asked by alesch in Outlook Groupware Software

Tags: new, calendar, property

Hello
Does anybody know how to programatically switch off the button 'propose new
time' on a meeting request?
On the Menu 'Action' is a option 'Allow new time Proposals'. Also in Outlook
under Options/Calendar.. is a button to generally switch off the 'propose
new time' button.
I could not find a way to switch it off on my own meeting request created via CDO.

To find this property I sent meetings with the same
User from different PC's. The recipient was both times the same.
On one machine I switched the "Allow new times proposal..." option off, and
on the other I switched it on. Well I got two meeting requests one with the
button and one with disabled (invisible) button.

With Outlookspy I found the Property which switches the Button on the
MeetingRequest ON/OFF:
It is:
PropertyTag : 0x8366 (|ID=0x825)
Type : PT_BOOLEAN
Value : true/false
Named Property:
Tag num : 0x8366000B
GUID: {00062002-0000-0000-C000-00000000}
Kind : MNID_ID
ID : 0x825A

Question:
How is it possible to see on which object this property is saved and change it with
CDO1.21?
This property must be saved somewhere in the profile and on the message.

I for example checked the Current User object, but this yields to nothing.
There are 34 properties but not a property 0x8366 or 0x825A.
Is the Conversion from 8366000B to -2090467317 correct? (see code below)
Any help really(!) welcome
Sepp

Code sample(c#):
AddressEntry rcpt_ae = (MAPI.AddressEntry)mapiSession.CurrentUser;
Field fld=null;
string str="";
int count = (int)(((Fields)rcpt_ae.Fields).Count);
int counter=0;
//check every field of the ddress entry of the recipient
for (int i = 1; i <= count; i++)
{
counter++;
//PropSetID4
//PropSet1 (must be converted see Q195656)
fld =
(Field)((Fields)rcpt_ae.Fields).get_Item(i,"0006200200000000C000000000000046
");
str=fld.ID.ToString();
if(fld.ID.ToString()=="-2108030965" || fld.ID.ToString()=="-2090467317")
{ //Test Property found
fld.Value = this.chkSMRProposeNewTime.Checked;
rcpt_ae.Update(true,true); //this is critical!!!! do not remove!
break;
}
}

P.S. If you VB Code it's ok too.
