Note further that there is a way to enable Outlook URL in MS Office so that outlook would automatically open the message using the following URL outlook://messageID. Note that email ID in Outlook changes if you move the message to another folder, so run these macros after you have decided where the particular message will live (if you are using folders). You need to also enable macros in “Macro Security” in the Developer tab, if not already enabled. This will pull up the referenced email in Outlook.įor anyone who is not familiar with Outlook VBA, just go to “Developer” tab, select “Visual Basic”, then in the new window, expand the folders on the left until you see “This OutlookSession”. To use the second macro, locate the email ID string in Dynalist, copy it and run the macro in Outlook. You can then paste it into your Dynalist document.
The first macro pulls the subject and the unique email ID and copies it to your clipboard. Set myMail = myNamespace.GetItemFromID(strText) Set myNamespace = myOlApp.GetNamespace("MAPI") Set myOlApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application") Set objMail = (1)ĭoClipboard.SetText objMail.Subject + " / _outlook link:_ " + objMail.EntryID MsgBox ("Select one and ONLY one message.") 'One and ONLY one message muse be selected Todoist Outlook Add-In does this very well, for instance, but for those who want to keep track of this in Dynalist or who do not want to rely on Outlook native flagging/task manager, here is the VBA code that you can use to create 2 macros: '(1) Adds a link to the currently selected message to the clipboardĭim doClipboard As New MSForms.DataObject This is helpful if you are tracking your tasks or notes in Dynalist, and want to add a link to a particular email that contains some pertinent info or to which you need to reply or that you need to follow up on. This might be helpful for anyone who works with MS Office/Outlook and wants to be able to link specific Outlook emails to Dynalist (this of course is not an issue for anyone who lives in a Gmail world, as you can just copy/paste the email url either manually or using the clip extension that just posted here ).
