Hello Lin,

If you want to be compatible with Outlook XP you should develop against
Outlook XP and not against Outlook 2003.

You can download the official microsoft PIA's here:

Hi Helmut

Thanks for your answer.
I've tried to debug it on office XP and i found that it fails on the casting
of Outlook.Explorer to Outlook.ExplorerClass. do you have any idea on that?!

thanks Lin.
