Some people are just not that fortunate to have the privilige to be working with such an excellent tool as Lotus Notes is. In order to give them the option to add an action document created in a Notes application to their todo list in Outlook the code below will do the job:
Sub Click(Source As Button)
Dim ws As New NotesUIWorkspace
Dim session As New NotesSession
Dim db As NotesDatabase
Dim uiddoc As NotesUIDocument
Set db = session.CurrentDatabase
Set uidoc = ws.Currentdocument
Set doc = uidoc.document
If uidoc.IsNewDoc Then
Msgbox “This document has not been saved.” & Chr$(10) & Chr$(10) & “Please save prior to mailing this action!”, 4112, “New Document”
Exit Sub
End If
Const Formula$ = { @DbLookup(“”; “”; “$People”; AssignedTo; “Email”) }
Dim namesList As Variant
Set myOlApp = CreateObject(“Outlook.Application”)
Set myNameSpace = myOlApp.GetNameSpace(“MAPI”)
Set myFolder = myNameSpace.GetDefaultFolder(13)
Set myItem = myOlApp.CreateItem(3)
Dim rtItem As NotesRichTextItem
Set rtItem = doc.GetFirstItem(“Comment1”)
With myItem
.Assign
namesList = Evaluate(Formula$, doc)
Forall names In namesList
Set myRecipients = .Recipients.Add(names)
End Forall
.Subject = doc.Subject(0)
.Body = “Action number: ” & doc.ActionNumber(0) & Chr$(10) & Chr$(10) & rtItem.text
If (doc.NoDueDate(0)=””) Then
.DueDate = doc.DueDate(0)
End If
.Importance = doc.Priority(0)
.Status = doc.Status(0)
.Categories = doc.Category(0)
.Display
End With
doc.OutlookSave = Date$
Set myOlApp = Nothing
Set myFolder = Nothing
Set myItem = Nothing
Set myRecipients = Nothing
Exit Sub
End Sub
