msoutl.olb

[Guest]

I want to use the property mailitem.senderemailaddress in a MSAccess
application on a computer which has only Outlook2000 installed on it. I know
this property originates from Outlook2003. I figured by installing only the
object library file msoutl.olb I could use this property. I tried to make a
reference from the VBA code to this file but in the reference screen I get
something like File not found. I tried to register this file by using
regsvr32.exe but this doesn't seem to be possible. It only works with .dll
and ocx files. I know something is written to the registry because when I
search on a computer which has installed outlook2003 there is an entry in the
registry for this file.
Is it possible to use this object library file in a MSAccess97 application
on a computer which has only Outlook2000 installed on it ?

Thanks in advance.

You've already received an answer to this in another newsgroup where you
posted the same question.

If you feel you need to post to more than one group (HINT: it's seldom
necessary), please have the courtesy to cross-post (send the one message to
all groups at once), rather than multi-post (send individual messages to
each group). In this way, all responses to your post will be available
together, regardless of what group the responder was in, and the rest of us
won't have to read your post multiple times. (It also uses fewer server
resources)

If you're using Microsoft's web interface to post, you should see an
"Advanced Options" link at the bottom of the page. You can type the names of
the various groups into the Newsgroup box, separating each newsgroup name
with a semicolon.

Note that it's generally consider to be A Bad Thing to cross-post to more
than about 2 or 3 newsgroups.

Note, too, that just because the property exists in the Outlook 2003 library
doesn't mean that Outlook 2000 would be able to use it even if you did have
the Outlook 2003 library installed.

I don't post a lot so I wasn't aware of this. I have posted my question in
the Programming and General newsgroups, thats it. I remember this next time.
