#include <OutlookEX.au3>

$oOutlook = _OL_Open()
If @error <> 0 Then Exit MsgBox(16, "OutlookEX UDF", "Error creating a connection to Outlook. @error = " & @error & ", @extended = " & @extended)

$aFolder = _OL_FolderAccess($oOutlook, "", $olFolderInbox)
If @error <> 0 Then Exit MsgBox(16, "OutlookEX UDF: _OL_PSTAccess Example Script", "Error accessing archive folder. @error = " & @error & ", @extended: " & @extended)


$aItems = _OL_ItemFind($oOutlook, $aFolder[1],  $olMail, "", "", "", "Subject,Body,SenderEmailAddress", "", 1)
$iRows = (UBound($aItems, $UBOUND_ROWS)) - 1 ;i count the line of this array


_ArrayDisplay($aItems, "OutlookEX UDF: _OL_ItemFind Example Script - Unread mails")

; For $i=1 To $iRows Step 1
; _OL_ItemModify($oOutlook,$aItems[$i][0], Default, "Unread=False");passé le mail en read
; Next

_OL_Close($oOutlook)

i have a problem to filter the existing emails by name or string,
"$sSearchName" and "$sSearchValue" don't seem to work.
"$sRestrict" with '[FirstName] = "TestFirstName"' didn't work either, maybe someone else has an idea.

thanks in advance

Can you post the script you use to filter the mails (means: Script including the filter).
Wht is the valu of @error and @extended after _OL_ItemFind?
Do you get any mail items returned when you use filters?

Hi,

With the code example I get without filter 300 emails displayed, with filter not a single one but also no error message.

I have tried many filters, here are a few examples

$aItems = _OL_ItemFind($oOutlook, $aFolder[1],  $olMail, "[FirstName] = 'xxxxxx'", "", "", "Subject,Body,SenderEmailAddress", "", 1)

$aItems = _OL_ItemFind($oOutlook, $aFolder[1],  $olMail, "", "FirstName", "", "Subject,Body,SenderEmailAddress", "", 1)

$aItems = _OL_ItemFind($oOutlook, $aFolder[1],  $olMail, "", "", "string part subject", "Subject,Body,SenderEmailAddress", "", 1)

no error

If you want to search for a part of the String use the following code:

$aItems = _OL_ItemFind($oOutlook, $aFolder[1], $olMail, "", "Subject", "part of the subject", "Subject,Body,SenderEmailAddress", "", 1)
