error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _IID_IMessage

Often time, I encounter unresolved external symbol _IID_IMessage problem when I am trying to use IID_IMessage in my codes.


This is my solution to the problem, include and define in such sequence.


#define INITGUID
#define USES_IID_IMessage
#define USES_IID_IMAPIPropData
#define USES_IID_IMAPITable

#include <initguid.h> //this is needed,
#include <mapiguid.h> //then this
#include <mapiform.h>
#include <objbase.h>
#include <mapix.h>
#include <mapitags.h>
#include <mapidefs.h>
#include <mapiutil.h>
#include <imessage.h>

Thanks for the post, this successfully resolved my error, and in far less time than if I had tried to figure out this seemingly random order on my own.
