"shell.explorer.2" and "Drop" from Outlook

[AUGE_OHR]

hi,

"shell.explorer.2" -> IE-Engine can handle almost all Format which you "Drop" into it.

for HMG you need to "enable" it with

Code: Select all

   DragAcceptFiles( Form.Control.HANDLE )

also a Event is need when something was "Drop"

Code: Select all

   CREATE EVENT PROCNAME Drop_Detect(cForm, cControl) HWND Form.Control.HANDLE

now we can "wait" for

Code: Select all

FUNCTION Drop_Detect(cDropForm, cDropCont)
LOCAL nMsg    := EventMSG()
LOCAL nWParam := EventWPARAM()

   DO CASE
      CASE nMsg == WM_DROPFILES

and "Query" what was "Drop"

Code: Select all

         aFiles := DragQueryFileS( nWParam )

at that Point HMG Version work different to Xbase++

hi,

i have ask in FiveWin Forum and Otto show me a Sample using RICHTEXT and "drop" Qutlook Email to it

so i look into FiveWin Source and found in \fwh\source\classes\triched5.prg -> \fwh\source\classes\window.prg

Code: Select all

   METHOD SetOleInit()      INLINE RESetOleInit5()
   METHOD SetOleUnInit()    INLINE RESetOleUnInit5( ::hWnd )
   METHOD SetOleCallback()  INLINE RESetOleCallback5( ::hWnd )
   METHOD GetOleInterface() INLINE REGetOleInterface5( ::hWnd )

i guess it is like under Xbase++ (using Ot4Xb Syntax)

Code: Select all

   @ole32:OleInitialize(0)
   ...
   @ole32:OleUninitialize()

Question : does HMG or MiniGUI Version use OLE

use any RICHEDITBOX Control and "drop" Email from Outlook into it

you need NO other Code or "Trick" to "drop" Email from Outlook into RICHEDITBOX
you will become some Text which i need for "Keywords"

as i say this is the "Start-Point" to get hole Email and Attachment(s)

please copy "that" Line and post it here in Forum
also write what this Line give you fir nCountry

Code: Select all

LOCAL nCountry := HB_bitAND( GETKEYBOARDLAYOUT(), 0xFFFF )

thx for help

hi

i have made a Demo EXE Version which will work (or not) without "Check"
"Check" does "only" work with German Message, other Language i can not test

OLRICH.zip

(1.46 MiB) Downloaded 65 times

please use this Demo "only" for Outlook Email
"other" may work .. but it can also crash.

---

App will display at upper/left and "wait" for "drop"
as it is a "normal" RICHEDITBOX so you can use it in your App without any change

if you like it please post Snapshot of MessageBox for you Language

En español, parece OK

hi

as i say "this" Version is "un-lock" ... but you can "drop" more than Outlook Email which may crash ...

so please try "normal" RICHEDITBOX like \SAMPLES\Applications\MiniWriter\ and "drop" Email from Outlook to it
in German Version i got this in 1st Line

"Von Betreff Erhalten Größe Kategorien"

but as "Größe" have "special" Sign i use only 4 "Keywords" to identify Outlook Email

this is what i need from User of this Forum to made it "safe" before release Source
