Change filename
Hello,
in this post http://groups.google.com/group/micro...3cec52/?hl=de# I changed the conversationtopic because I thougt this is the name the file is stored in the Outlook folder. Now I found out that this has nothing to do with the filename. Is it possible to change the filename of a file which is stored in an Outlook folder? Thanks!

No, you can't do that. You also can't add a UserProperty to a DocumentItem.

Do you mean you want to change the file name of an attachment stored by a
document item in Outlook? Change the attachment file name, save the attachment (RDOAttachment.Save), then save the parent message (RDOMail.Save).

Hmm, sorry, Dmitry, I don`t understand you. I have only a file, no
message with an attachment. Perhaps you can more explain what I should try (may be my english is not good enough to understand you, sorry).

I probably totally misunderstand what you are trying to do.
Can you explain in detail what you are doing and what exactly you want to change?

Change filename
No problem, I try it.
Let`s create a new folder in Outlook from type "email". Then drag a pdf file from the windows explorer and drop it to the new email folder in Outlook. Now you have two properties in Outlook with the name of the pdf file (for example "doc_x1_q76.332.pdf"). These properties will be shown as the "ConversationTopic" and the "Subject" of this "olDocument" item. Ok, with your redemption.dll (thank you) I can also change the write protected property ConversationTopic (I thought this is the name the file is stored in Outlook). If you now add this stored file to a new email as an element, the original file name is shown there. My customer who asked me this functionalty wants to change the name of this file to the name of the subject which he can edit. So if he send this file to a customer, the customer will not see "doc_x1_q76.332.pdf" as attachment, but "manual.pdf". After Ken`s answer I tried to change the attachments file name of a new email, but it seems that this works not too. So it would be possible to react to the AddAttachments-Event (if avaible), search the filename in the email folders and rename it to the subject of this file.

Ok, my original suggestion still applies. Rename the attachment on the
message created after you drag a file from Window Explorer to an Outlook folder.
