Custom Mail Form pops up security dialog

[Peter Karlström]

Hi!

We are developing an integrated document storing process between Outlook
clients and different
target systems.
The target systems is databases or FileNet document-system.

We have developed a custom mail form, in wich we placed a button and som
VB-code.
The code that executes when the user presses the button is presented below.

The problem is the security warning that shows when the user clicks the
button.
The people who is going to use this system will save hundreds of mails each
week, and will not
have to push any more buttons than absolutely necessary.

We have tried to publish the form to Organisation and Personal folders with
no difference.

Is there a way around this without installing 3-rd party products that
automaticly clicks the Yes-button?

Thanks in advance for any input on this matter.

Yes. You need to use Redemption objects, which will not trigger the
security warning. The can be found at Dmitry Streblechenko (MVP)'s site,

Thanks Hollis

I first tried with MAPIProps, but I had problems using it in the form script.

Redemption seems to work just fine.
