can't create outlook object

[Keith G Hicks]

I have a client that has been running some code I put together to open up
outlook and set up a new message. Up until today it has worked fine on all
the machines in their office (various OS's). Today, their IT guy installed
XP SP2 on two of the XP machines. Now the line:

Set objOutlook = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")

gives him the "Can't create activex object . . . .429 . . . ."

He uninstalled SP2 and still has the same problem (all the references look
right in Access).

Any help would be wonderful.

THanks,

Keith

I've posted this also in the NG "outlook.general"

Never mind. We reinstalled Outlook and that fixed the problem. Apparantly
XP SP2 screwed something up.

Hi, I am using the same sought of code to automate emails from Access. One
question can you use signatures or insert images (eg company logo) into the
email body. I can't see anything that allows you to do it.

Cheers
