Hi Ken,

What do you mean?
"If it's plain text or RTF in the Outlook editor you cannot"
I cannot get the selection?

This is the scenario..

The user selects a part of the mail message/body and I should be able to
copy the selected items and store it as pdf.

Outlook.Selection selection = myActiveExplorer.Selection;

if (selection is Outlook.MailItem)
{
Outlook.MailItem mailItem =
(selection as Outlook.MailItem);

mailItem.Copy();

}

I believe that this would copy the entire mail right?

I only need to copy the selected objects..
and what would be the possible solution of converting a mail into pdf?

Thanks

would get the HTML.Document and use the HTML Document object model. For
WordMail you get the Word.Document and use that object model.
