Problems to use the EmailMerge-Method from the UICorrespondenceManager Class

[benoit22]

Hi,

I tried to use the EmailMerge-Method from the UICorrespondenceManager Class the following way:

--------------------------

           Act.Framework.ActFramework ActFr = new Act.Framework.ActFramework();
            ActFr.LogOn(xmlPADFile, userName, password);

            IUnityContainer container = new UnityContainer();
            UICorrespondenceManager UIManager = new UICorrespondenceManager(ActFr,container);
            UIManager.EmailMerge();           

-------------------------

VISUAL Studio tells me that this is not possible because:

Act.Framework.PermissionDeniedException - the user has no rights to perform this action.

Why?

At last I used the Mail-method instead of Email-method.

It's more or less the same.

Act.UI.Correspondence.UICorrespondenceManager sendmail= new Act.UI.Correspondence.UICorrespondenceManager(ActFr, container);
sendmail= ActApp.UICorrespondenceManager;

sendmail.MailMerge();

Problem solved for me.

Could be a couple of things. The first being the user that you're logging in as doesn't have permission to perform a mail merge the other being that an email client hasn't been setup.

That problem will be solved if I write instead of

Act.Framework.ActFramework ActFr = new Act.Framework.ActFramework();
            ActFr.LogOn(xmlPADFile, userName, password);

            IUnityContainer container = new UnityContainer();
            UICorrespondenceManager UIManager = new UICorrespondenceManager(ActFr,container);
            UIManager.EmailMerge();          

this

   this.ActApplication.UICorrespondenceManager.EmailMerge();

(

    Realising an plugin:

  // You use the IPlugin Interface

  // a private property of the IPlugin Interface is the ActApplication class

   private ActApplication ActApp;

  //also the OnUnload method
  //which needs the ActApplication class

   virtual void OnLoad( ActApplication ActApp )

   {

      this.ActApp= ActApp;

      // now or later you can use all the manager classes which are properties of the ActAplication class e. g.

     this.ActApp.UICorrespondenceManager.EmailMerge();

   }

....

)

But now I have a new problem.

If I use the EmailMerge method I get the following message:

"The email group contains no pages, please set the CurrentGroup of the the WizardSheet"

Which WizardSheet?

Stab in the dark...

Maybe the CurrentGroup is referring to the ApplicationState CurrentGroup?

What happens if you navigate to the groups detail view then run your code?
