Thanks for taking the time to ready my question.
I have a sub that helps me save an e-mail message to a folder on my
computer. What I have to do at the moment is type the full path into an
InputBox. What I'd like to do is have a dialog box pop up that has a browse
button on it. I can do this in MS Access, and copied my code over, but it
doesn't work in Outlook.
Does anyone know where I might find this type of code so I can use it in
Outlook?
Here is what I use in Access:
Option Compare Database
