Compile error..

[Peter]

Hi all,

i use this code in the "on click" event of a command button in a Access
form...

Dim objOutlook As Outlook.Application
Dim objEmail As Outlook.MailItem

Set objOutlook = CreateObject
Set objEmail = objOutlook.CreateItem(olMailItem)

However..i receive:

Compile error:

User-defined type not defined

Does this imply that I need to add a module:?

Thanks!

Which line produces that error?
Did you add Outlook to your project references?
Alse, the line
Set objOutlook = CreateObject
must be changed to
Set objOutlook = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
