Saving a Gif file as a Gif file in Outlook

[Sandy G]

I found in other posts how to save in Outlook a gif file as a gif file by
setting a macro in Visual Basic. The post said to go here:
http://www.howto-outlook.com/howto/saveembeddedpictures.htm.

I have followed explicitly the directions. My Visual Basic (I am using
Outlook 2003) looks a little different from the website. However, I put it
in a user form also in general. I've saved it. Gone out of Outlook. Come
back to set a macro button and there is no macro command there. Yet I can
pull it back up in Visual Basic and Outlook tells me I am running macros.
How do I get this to work? Should a clean sheet come up when I open Visual
Basic like it does in Word? If so, I don't get that. Can anyone help. I
want to get these gif files. I'm frustrated.

You say the VBA editor looks different? What do you see instead? Also; no
clean seet? What other macros are defined there? You can always cut & paste
these to notepad so that you can restore them later. Does it work then?

I fixed that problem Roady. I made another post. I got all of those steps
but now I get an error message when I run the code:

Run-Time Error '429':
Active X component can't create object.

Is there a fix?
