C#: Get The Status Of A Letter with GetStatus()

Instructions

Create a new Console Application project and add a web reference

Copy the entire code below, delete anything written in your application and paste the code there
Replace "MyUsername" and "MyPassword" with your PostalMethods user details
Replace "IDs" with a single ID of one of your sent mail items, multiple IDs (ID1,ID2,ID3) or a range of IDs (ID1-ID2)
Start your application. If the response is -3000, you will see the status report. If the response is any other number, check the Web Service Status Codes section.

using System;
 
namespace ConsoleApplication1
{
    class GetStatus
    {
        public static void Main()
        {

            const string MyPassword = "MyPassword";
            const string IDs = "0";       // To query a single mail item
            //const string IDs = "0,0,0"; // To query multiple mail items
            //const string IDs = "0-0";   // To query a range of mail items
 
 
            com.postalmethods.api.PostalWS objPM = new com.postalmethods.api.PostalWS();

            //
            // Invoke the GetStatus method
            //
 
            objResult = objPM.GetStatus(MyUsername, MyPassword, IDs);
 
            //

            {
                //

                // Write them down.
                //

                // A value less than -3000 means an error occurred.
                // See the PostalMethods Status Codes: http://www.postalmethods.com/statuscodes.
                //
                Console.WriteLine("Error is:" + objResult.ResultCode);
            }
 
            // In debug mode, the following lines prevent your console application from closing automatically upon termination
            Console.WriteLine("**********************************");
            Console.WriteLine("Hit ENTER to terminate application");
            Console.ReadLine();
