adding item.body="" seems to keep it.!
.Body = ""
.HTMLBody = some htmlcode

losing mail body content after close event of mailItem
17-Aug-07
Hello,
I have a mail item and I tried to add some text to this mail item by the
following code
OutLookApplication = new ActiveXObject("Outlook.Application");
MailItem =
OutLookApplication.GetNamespace("MAPI").GetItemFromID(ItemID);
MailItem.HTMLBody = "<HTML><HEAD></HEAD>
<BODY>HELLO</BODY></HTML>";
MailItem.Close(olSave);
After calling the MailItem.Close(olSave) method, the mail body has been
converted
to the following
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 3.2//EN">
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
<META NAME="Generator" CONTENT="MS Exchange Server version 6.5.7036.0">
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<!-- Converted from text/plain format -->
</BODY>
</HTML>
and my text is gone, any idea? I have tried manually do the saving by
calling MailItem.Save and MailItem.Close(1), but this also doesn't work

MailItem.HTMLBody="hallo"
MailItem.Save
should do it. If you don't display an item then you don't need to close it.

Hello Michael,
Thanks, I will check that out. But is there any reason why on close event
will lose the changes? Is this a known issue?
Thanks!

I have just tried what you suggest. It doesn't work, the text is still
disappearing. Could there be any settings in the exchange server that is
causing this behavior?

Where does your code run? Disappears the text only after sending the
message?

Re: losing mail body content after close event of mailItem
Hallo Michael,
I do not actually send the message, I just want to create a message in the
sent folder.
I have tested with several cases
1)
When I call the following code, after Close, the text disappear.
OutLookApplication = new ActiveXObject("Outlook.Application");
MailItem = OutLookApplication.GetNamespace("MAPI").GetItemFromID(ItemID);
MailItem.HTMLBody = "<HTML><HEAD></HEAD>
<BODY>HELLO</BODY></HTML>";
MailItem.Close(olSave);
2)
When I call
OutLookApplication = new ActiveXObject("Outlook.Application");
MailItem = OutLookApplication.GetNamespace("MAPI").GetItemFromID(ItemID);
MailItem.HTMLBody = "<HTML><HEAD></HEAD>
<BODY>HELLO</BODY></HTML>";
MailItem.Save( );
the body was there at the beginning and gone afterwards, not really sure
what triggers that.
3)
But if I call
OutLookApplication = new ActiveXObject("Outlook.Application");
MailItem = OutLookApplication.GetNamespace("MAPI").GetItemFromID(ItemID);
MailItem.HTMLBody = "<HTML><HEAD></HEAD>
<BODY>HELLO</BODY></HTML>";
MailItem.Close(olSave);
MailItem.HTMLBody = "<HTML><HEAD></HEAD>
<BODY>HELLO</BODY></HTML>";
MailItem.Save( );
By repeatingly updating the HTMLBody, this seems to be functioning.
In my opinion, this is not logical at all.
4)
I have also tried just to call
OutLookApplication = new ActiveXObject("Outlook.Application");
MailItem =
OutLookApplication.GetNamespace("MAPI").GetItemFromID(ItemID);
MailItem.Close(olSave);
MailItem.HTMLBody = "<HTML><HEAD></HEAD>
<BODY>HELLO</BODY></HTML>";
MailItem.Save( );
But this also doesn't work, so from my debugging experience, I have to set
the HTMLBody twice.
Do you think it's a MAPI API problem?
Vielen Dank f??r Ihre Hilfe!

Really seems not logical. I wonder why you don't need a Set statement for
setting the object variables. So again, does the code run within the Outlook
VBA environment (obviously not) or anywhere else?

Hello Michael,
It is not running in the VBA environment, but on the web browser, and I am
using JavaScript for it.

Sorry, I don't know what's going on and I don't know anythign about
JavaScript.
Maybe you can and have to live with this workaround:
MailItem.HTMLBody=""
MailItem.Save
MailItem.HTMLBody="Hello"
MailItem.Save
Again, you don't need to write all the basic HTML stuff.
