CDO - How?

Guest

I'm looking to learn CDO, and my first very basic question: How do I make it run? I've keyed the following code into the Visual Basic editor (my first mistake?), and can't even start it due to MAPI.Session not being recognized. I have checked the references for "CDO for Windows 2000 Library" and "CDO for NTS 1.2 Library"...do I need any others?

Dim objSession As Mapi.Session
Dim objMessage As Message
Dim objOneRecip As Recipient

Set objSession = CreateObject("MAPI.Session")
objSession.Logon "MS Exchange Settings"

Set objMessage = objSession.outbox.Message.Add
objMessage.Subject = "Test Subject"
objMessage.Text = "Test text"

Set AddressList = objSession.AddressLists(1)
Set objOneRecip = objMessage.Recipients.Add
objOneRecip.Name = AddressList.AddressEntries(1)
objOneRecip.Type = 1
objOneRecip.Resolve

objMessage.Display
objMessage.Send False
objSession.Logoff


Thanks!

Those are the wrong libraries. You need Collaboration Data Objects 1.21. It doesn't install by default, so you may need to rerun Outlook setup.

MAPI.Session is a CDO 1.21 object. CDO 1.21 is an optional component
installed by Outlook or Exchange Server. Re-run Outlook setup, select
Custom, make sure "Collaboration Data Objects" is checked.
