I am working on using the IMAPI2 COM component in one of our products for an improved data burning experience. After exhaustively searching for anyone's C# port of the COM error codes laid out by Microsoft, I came up dry. There is a C++ header file included with the Windows SDK, but that's doesn't help me in C# where I wanted to use an enum (uint).
