Am I in Outlook or Word

[Tim Cadieux]

Ok, I already have a project running in Word. When a
client runs my macro, it opens the WordDialog and allows
them to save their documents to predefined locations with
the BuiltInProperties filled out. When in outlook, this
Macro appears because word is our editor. My clients
would like to continue to be able to use it to save
Emails.
I need to be able to detect whether or not the client in
in Word or Outlook when the macro is fired so that I could
change the Extension to either .Doc or .Msg

Any ideas?

G'day "Tim Cadieux" <[email protected]>,

methinks sys call to focussed window's ultimate parent might be in
order - way beyond scope of group.
