Using the Logon Method

  • Article

The Logon method takes a number of different parameters, as shown in the following code. The parameter you use depends on the requirements of your application.

objSession.Logon( [ProfileName] [, ProfilePassword] [, 
      ShowDialog] 
[, NewSession] [, ParentWindow] [, NoMail] [, ProfileInfo] )

The two common ways to log on to a CDO session are by passing in a Messaging Application Programming Interface (MAPI) profile name and by passing in the specific information required by CDO to generate a profile dynamically. Dynamically generated profiles are the preferred method when building ASP applications with CDO. Because ASPs cannot access client profiles, CDO has no way to pull information from a profile located on the machine of the user.

For additional information about the CDO Logon method, refer to https://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?URL=/library/psdk/cdo/_olemsg_logon_method_session.htm in the Microsoft® Developer Network (MSDN™) Library.
