Hi.

A lot of replies by the MVPs include the statement that the OP will
need to use VBA.

What's the best way to get started?

Are there any "VBA for Dummies" type books or development tools?

Are there repositories of source code that the beginning VBA
programmer can look at?

Question: Does Outlook (2003) out of the box contain VBA code that is
executed when a user clicks on a button or fills out a form? While
Outlook is running, is there a way to watch this code execute and see
how it changes values or fills in fields?

This question came up in my mind because of the dedication and support
of the MVPs in this group. Without them, this group would not be the
same.

(For a really great counter-example, see alt.os.windows-xp. People
posting legitimate and interesting questons get flamed, insulted, and
much worse by some self-appointed experts. In particular, look at the
postings of Kaidaitcha-Man. And, and, and, the question never gets an
actual answer.)
