VB editor appears and then disappear

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone might be able to help me out. I have codes that i
found from the web that enables me to send an email out from my Access
database using Outlook 2003. It works fine except that during the process of
sending the email, users can see the VBA editor windows open up briefly and
then go disappear.

My question is how to make it so that the VBA editor does not appear on the
screen.

Thank you in advance

We'd better see some code, because this is definitely not normal behaviour.

blnSuccessful = True

ExitRoutine:

Exit Function

ErrorHandler:
MsgBox "An error has occured in the user defined Outlook VBA function

"Error Number: " & CStr(Err.Number) & vbCrLf & _

vbCritical
Resume ExitRoutine

End Function

So what happens is that i can see the Visual Basic Editor window appearing
for a few seconds and then went disappear while sending an email out in
Outlook.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you in advance
