Hello,

I use to build outlook Email with OLE components and I want to insert the default digital signature in the htmlbody.

Someone can help me?

 

I give you part of my code with the variables declarations :

OLEObject viole_application
OLEObject ole_item, ole_attach
string vls_htmlbody
string vls_file

viole_application.ConnectToNewObject("outlook.application")
ole_item = viole_application.CreateItem(0)
ole_attach = ole_item.Attachments

...

vls_htmlbody = ...
vls_file = ...
...
ole_item.htmlBody = vls_htmlbody
//I want to insert here the default outlook digital signature 

ole_attach.add(vls_fichier)

...

 

Thanks

I think the default signature should be already inserted if you create a new message.

So you have to insert your message into the html body (instead of overwrite it).

Try

ole_item.htmlBody = vls_htmlbody + ole_item.htmlBody

Thanks René. It was a good idea, but it doesn't work.

I tested it out with body instead of htmlbody: The trick is to call the display function before you set the body. Outlook adds the signature when you call the Display function and if body is not modified.



ole_item.Display

ole_item.Body = vls_body + ole_item.Body



It should also work with htmlbody but you have to insert your content into the existing html document.
