    Appointment.Body always returns ""

    Reply Contact

    Hello,

    we want to use "InTheHand.WindowsMobile.dll" version 3.2.0.0 (registered) on the the following system

    - WinCE 5.0 on ARM4
    - CF 2.0
    - VB.Net

    Problem: Appointment.Body always returns an empty string, even after you assign a value to it.

    Does someone have an idea how to fix this?

    Background: we are currently using version 2.1.60828 and use the (working) appointment.BodyInk-property there. The Body-property doesn't work for this older version, too. In version 3.2.0.0 BodyInk doesn't exist anymore.

    Thanks!

    Chris

    Are you calling Update() after setting the body value? Can you be more specific about the device - is it custom CE 5.0 device rather than Windows Mobile?

    Hello Peter,

    thank you for your reply.
    We are using a custom CE 5.0-device, not Windows Mobile.

    Independent of calling Update() or not, the body-property itself does not show any value after an assignment.

    Here are my testsources:

    --------------------------------------

    Dim s1, s2, s3 As String

    Dim app As New InTheHand.WindowsMobile.PocketOutlook.Appointment       'first test using a "stand-alone"-appointment-object

    app.Body = "test"

    s1 = app.Body

    Dim Session As New InTheHand.WindowsMobile.PocketOutlook.OutlookSession   '2nd test using an apoointment assigned to the OutlookSession

    app = Session.Appointments.Items.AddNew()

    app.Body = "test"

    s2 = app.Body

    app.Update()

    s3 = app.Body

    --------------------------------- 

    s1,s2 and s3 show empty strings (as the debugger does if you watch app.body directly). Other properties (like Subject,..) are working fine.

    Best regards

    Chris
