Create MAPI Session failure

[derek mang]

I am using Windows XP pro with Office 2003. Within Outlook, I have a
series of macros to facilitate handling of specific emails.

Within this, one function is to extract the sender's email address using
CDO - which fails (Code below). I use the same .otm file on a different
machine wito Windows XP pro and Outlook 2002, and it's perfect.

CDO 1.21 is referenced.


Any thoughts would be appreciated
Regards
Derek

If G_objSession Is Nothing Then
' Set the CDO Session up as it doesn't exist.
Call SetCDOSession
End If

' pass item to CDO and get sender address
On Error Resume Next
Set objCDOItem = G_objSession.GetMessage(strEntryID, strStoreID)

GetFromAddress = objCDOItem.Sender.Address

Set objCDOItem = Nothing

End Function

You can't run code in an OTM file in Outlook 2003 SP2 or higher I believe it
is. You can only run code from published forms.

You're thinking of an .oft file, I think. .otm would be VBA. The most likely cause is that CDO 1.21 isn't installed on the problem machine.

You're right of course, too many abbreviations to keep track of <sound of
