Reading data from e-mail and writing it in database

drago82

Hi guys,
I'm completely new to Navision and one of my first tasks is to write a codeunit that reads mail's from Outlook 2010 using automation. The general idea is as follows:

The mail in specific form is received in outlook, Navision (Dynamics NAV 2009) reads data from mail (both subject and body) and writes it in NAV's SQLServer database as a new record in a table.

Can you please help a newbie jumpstart with some basic explanation of the proces and please post some code example.

Thanks!

I'll suggest you to take a look at the E-Mail Logging granule of NAV. It might fulfill your requirements directly or the two codeunits can be customized or used as inspiration to your own solution.

Thanks pdj! I'll try that when I get the chance. Currently I have some other, more urgent asignments.
