MS Outlook VBO with v6.2

NikhilSathe · ‎30-10-19

Hi
I have BP v6.2 and want to try MS Outlook VBO. (is it possible?)
I downloaded it from DX and imported it into my process. It shows all the actions possible.
I tried executing "Send Email" but it gives error "Internal : Could not run the object because one of the code stages has a compile error, use Check for Errors for a list of problems".
I tried googling it and it indicates some settings regarding Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.dll, but do not know how to solve it.
Any ideas?

Hi Nikhil,

1. Please save the "Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.dll" in Blue Prism directory ex. C:\Program Files\Blue Prism Limited\Blue Prism Automate\
2. provide the path in VBO for the DLL in code options (Extrenal Ref). ex. C:\Program Files\Blue Prism Limited\Blue Prism Automate\Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.dll
3. In code options add Namespce as "Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook".

Hope this will help you!

It worked!! Thanks Mahesh!

Now the next question 🙂 there are other DLLs present there, to I have to perform similar activity in order to have the fully functional VBO?

DLL -> Namespace
----- ----------------------
System.Data.dll -> System
System.Xml.dll -> Microsoft.VisualBasic
System.Drawing.dll -> System.Drawing
?? -> Microsoft.Win32

By performing above settings will I be able to draw tables/insert screenshots in email?
Thanks in advance
