problem changing message class

I am attempting to use the Omsgclas macro posted at Microsoft, but it
won't work. I have used it before so I don't know what is going on. I
am using Office XP. Since the last time it worked I have installed
and uninstalled the 2003 beta version, so maybe that changed some
setings. I have already modified my security to Medium so that macros
will run.

I stepped through the macro and it is coming up with an error on:

Set ol = New Outlook.Application

any suggestions?

Did you set a reference to the Outlook library in the VBA project?

I'm not sure where to do this. I have not modified the macro since i
downloaded it.

Also my custom form won't open now.... the contacts that used the form
now display the standard Outlook form. I 'm not sure what's going on.

You might want to add the Message Class property to a table view so you can
see what form the contacts are set to use.

I had the same problem after installing Outlook 2003.

Just try to change the line:

"Set ol = New Outlook.Application" to "Set ol = Outlook.Application"

worked for me!

Cheers
