How do I remove the VBA project

R

RDK

Hi folks......I was playing around with VBA in Outlook just to see what I
could do. Well, I decided to quit and remove the test project but it won't
let me!!!

I have removed the form and modules, but the project remains. And, now
every time I start up Outlook, it askes if it can activate the macros.

How can I fix this problem??

Thanks.....RDK

Did you try to remove all source code from the project file?

Otherwise close outlook and delete vbaproject.otm.
Should be in your user profile directory:
pre-Vista: documents and settings\<user>\appdata\microsoft\outlook
Vista: users\<user>\appdata\roaming\microsoft\outlook

Sven.....Many thanks, that seems to have worked. I tried searching for .OTM
files but it did not find any. Wonder why?

Oh well, thanks...RDK

Those directories are typically hidden. You have to make them visible:
Explorer->Tools->Folder Options->View->Show hidden files and folders.
It could also be an advacned option in the search function of Explorer
to enable searching in hidden folders.
