A Program Is Trying To Access Outlook e-mail Address...

[John Stone]

Hi -

Whenever I try to send an email message using Word or any
other program, I get an Outlook message informing me
that "a program is trying to access e-mail addresses you
have stored in Outlook". The only choices I get are to
allow access for one instance or for a short period of
time. What I want to do is to ALWAYS allow Word,
PowerPoint, Excel and ACT to access my Outlook e-mail
addresses. How can I do this?

Thanks for your help

John

ARe you using Adobe Acrobat 6.0 full version - not the free reader? If yes,
then you need to disable the Acrobat .dot file - see this page for details:

I went through the document but cannot find
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Office\Outlook\Addins
\PDFMOutlook.PDFMOutlook anywhere on my hard drive. I did
every kind of search I could find, but was unable to turn
it up. Any hints as to where it might be locatd would
really help.

Thanks,

This happened after I installed Acrobat 6.0 full version.
But I cann't understand how to disable the .dot file. Can
you tell me where to find it?

Milly,

Yes, I just installed Adobe Standard 6.0. Thanks for the
tip. I went to the document you suggested, which says

"To prevent the PDFMaker COM Addin from loading, go to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Office\Outlook\Addins
\PDFMOutlook.PDFMOutlook and change the LoadBehavior value
from 3 to 2. Restart Outlook. The PDF functions will still
be available in Word and the other Office programs."

I want to implement this fix, but cannot find this file
anywhere on my computer. Am I missing something or is
there another way to access it?

Thanks,

John

Hi John,

This isn't a file on the system. The location is in the registry. Use
regedit.exe to make the modification at the location specified.

I went through the document but cannot find
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Office\Outlook\Addins
\PDFMOutlook.PDFMOutlook anywhere on my hard drive. I did
every kind of search I could find, but was unable to turn
it up. Any hints as to where it might be locatd would
really help.

Thanks,

John

John,

Did you ever resolve this problem? I do not have Adobe 6.0, I just have the
free download version.

Each time I try to send or look at an email in Act, I continue to get that
annoying message telling me someone is trying to access my emails from
Outlook. There is no option to just say "yes, always allow".

It's probably Act! itself causing the problem. See
