Modifying the To, CC and BCC fields

[lgwapnitsky]

I am trying to write a VBA script that parses the above-mentioned fields and
removes certain groups based on user response. My code works up until the
point where I'm ready to send the message, at which point I get a message
station "Operation has failed".

I am a farily new VBA programmer, so I know my code is a bit sloppy.

Thanks,
Larry

As I seem to recall if you're sending to more than one receipient, you have
to use the receiptent(sp) collection and then set to the .To to the
collection.

Instead of posting what appears to be the whole code, why not just
post the relevant section that is giving you trouble, state at exactly
what line the code bombs, and explain the outcome you are looking
for, so we can more easily pinpoint exactly what is needed.

Thx,
