I am wondering if there is a way to use your own Outlook quick steps in emails using a shared Mailbox?
I have seen the way of using MFCMAPI to export the Quick Steps as MSG files, but this is not the route we'd like to go down, as this would overwrite the shared mailbox's quick steps, and also every time you add a quick step you'd have to again manually export.
We would like to be able to simply use the main profile's quick steps on the shared mailbox. No overwriting or having to manually import every time a quick step is changed.
For a delegate mailbox, Outlook always shows the quick steps from the primary mailbox. Are you trying to set quick steps for another user?
If Redemption (I am its author) is an option, it exposes quick steps on the store level so that you can manipulate them programmatically.

Strange enough that I have to ask such a simple question.
I started automating with UFT and I suppose the correct way to check if for instance my login has worked is to add a checkpoint on the next page.
But how do I do that?
All info I get from google is on how to add an already existing checkpoint to may page. But I don't have any.
Here is how I go about automating:
I add manually the relevant objects to the object repository
I create parameters for my action
I create the code that does the steps on the page
one action per page seems to be fine for me
But in the Object Repository of UFT 14.53, there is no button to add a Checkpoint.
A workaround for me would be to just add another Object and check it's existence and forget about checkpoints. Until I hopefully get an answer here, I will try to do just that.
In UFT there are typically two ways to verify that things are working as expected.
Flow (implicit) - In order to verify that progress in the application is successful (e.g. login) one usually just keeps working with the app, assuming that if the previous step failed, the objects needed for the next steps won't exist and the test will fail due to ObjectNotFound errors
State (explicit) - In order to see that objects have a specific state, checkpoints are usually used. Checkpoints are typically added during a record session, I'm not sure if there's a way to add them directly to the repository. An alternative to checkpoints, which works better with keyword driven testing (no recording), is to use the built in CheckProperty method.
i have above mentioned case happen at our company, they need to know under certain folder whether its shared or not if any files inserted or removed or update to send alert by email periodically for that action, any thought an ideas please
You can fairly easily create an application in C# that monitors a folder using the FileSystemMonitor class:

With that you can then have it perform whatever actions you want.
I understand that a plugin registered for pre-validation executes outside of the database transaction but I'm not sure I can think of a scenario when this would be preferable to pre-operation. Can someone give me an example of where pre-validation registration might be useful?
We have a few plugins registered on the 'PreValidation' event although this is on premise, not online.
I did not write these specific plugins myself but I can describe one and give the justification for using 'PreValidation' rather than 'PreOperation'.
Entity: Account
Event: Delete
Logic: Plugin runs pre validation. Checks that there are no contacts referencing any of the account's addresses. If any are found, stop execution. If not, delete account.
e.g.
Account 'Stackoverflow' has address 'Jeff Attwood's House' and Contact 'glosrob'. 'glosrob' is referencing 'Jeff Attwood's House' through a customisation. If a user selects to delete 'StackOverflow', we should detect 'glosrob' is referencing an address and prevent the delete.
The reasoning behind this was the developer found that at the PreOperation stage, some aspects of the delete had already happened, namely the cascade deletes. The logic of the plugin requires us to check all contacts - by registering at PreOperation, contacts under the account had already been deleted, rendering the check obsolete.
In our previous scenario, when the user selected to delete 'StackOverflow' Account, the Contact 'glosrob' would be deleted before the plugin runs. Therefore when the plugin did run afterwards, it would allow the delete.
As with most things in CRM, it all comes down to requirements and solutions, but I think that gives you an idea of why/when you might use a PreValidation stage. We have a few others with similar reasoning that run on the 'Delete' event.
I know its very old post, came here while digging for an answer for the same question...
Later I found one key point from MSDN on the same topic and i thought it would be helpful If I post the infromation over here for all..
The Prevalidation plugin would happen prior to the security checks. For ex: If an account is "VIP" account and you dont want this account record to be deleted (no matter even he is a super user/admin), then this better can happen in pre validation. Because at that time you are not really bothered about who the user is and what sort of permissions he has (even he may not have any permissions to delete any records in the system), CRM will go and check the database for the user's security roles during the pre operation and that is where the first database hit would happen.. before that it self, we can stop the exucution of the plugin based on our validation rules..
I hope that make sense...
Thank you

I am working on mailchimp integration.
I need to pull campaign stats (opens and clicks) and put it in my local database.
Using mailchimp api i am getting the list of all the users with their action taken.
But my issue is how to keep data sync at all time.
Is there any way to skip that data from mailchimp api that i had synced already.
The problem is the entire data set can change between calls and there is no 'since' parameter... The only way to get an updated picture is to query all records and update....
Keeping stat "data synced at all times" really would just depend on your solution (have it query for updates when you/your users access that section...)
You could expidite the update process by keeping track of previous calls/updates with the timestamp (keep track of the timestamp and only update/add records that are newer than the last sync... )
As I said, there is currently no "since" command for the campaignEmailStatsAIMAll method (and no direct equivelent in the export API...)
A 'since' parameter would actually be a good feature... So if coding your own solution to track updates via the timestamp is undesirable, you may want to ask the question in the google group or post a feature request in the google code project:
http://code.google.com/p/mailchimp-api/
EDIT: I just opened the feature request as it may solve a similar issue for an upcomming project:

I am trying to add an event sync via the wizard in exchange explorer, that comes from the SDK, to the default public folder calendar without success.
Things I am able to do:
I can Use the event wizard on a test folder in the same node as the default calendar and add event syncs to a com+ app I have registered with the system. This works fine, and all our testing is completed.
Things i cannot do:
In exchange explorer i can navigate to the default public calendar but i cannot see any of the items that are added to that folder. In exchange explorer I get a message that says “The Schema or Items is not located at the specified server.” See below. In addition if I right click on the node I do not get options to use a event registration wizard I actually don’t get any options. However on the test node I do.
What I want to do is be able to add an event item to the items node. Also, I have rights on the calendar node as administrator with ownership rights on the folder on the client configuration in exchange system manager.
Can someone please let me know what I should do to get the event sync on this top-level folder? Also, would / should I use the RegEvent script and would I have success with that if there is not success here?

I think issue is related to Permissions. Try to check it here.
