[AccessD] Outlook / Access Email Security (wasOT:Programmingin Outlook)

I don't know enough to help. Just tried it on this machine... Created
the cert, went into VBA editor and clicked "tools" then "digital
signature" then "choose" under "sign as" and the cert was there. This is
only for self certification I believe so it (possibly???) won't work on
other computers.

I just found and ran it.  The cert doesn't show up in the trusted list
however.  I also have a real cert (some of you may remember THAT fiasco
a few months ago) and it doesn't show up in the trusted list either.

Look for a file called selfcert.exe it should be in your office
directory

I just looked at the Security dialog box in Outlook for the first time,
and read the Help info that went along with it.  (Outlook XP)

The Help info says this:

	A warning is displayed whenever a VBA project from a source that
is
 	not on your list of trusted sources is loaded. [under Medium
setting]

And this:

	This tab [Trusted Sources] lists the currently trusted
certificates
	that can be used by
	developers to sign documents and add-ins. When you open a
digitally
	signed document, the digital signature appears on your computer
as a
	certificate. The certificate names the VBA project's source,
plus
	additional information about the identity and integrity of that
	source.

This sounds as though I could create a digital signature for a specific
Access application, which, when combined with a security setting of
Medium or High in Outlook, would prevent the annoying 'are you sure'
message box that displays when Access is trying to send a non-displayed
message through Outlook.  If so, that would be wonderful!

Does anyone know how to go about creating such a digital signature for
an Access application?

Thanks,
Dan Waters

You may need to set the macro security to medium (TOOLS - MACRO -
SECURITY)...

I'm using Outlook 2002 btw - tried what you did and it worked fine on
medium (got prompt to enable macros though)

Well, I found ThisOutlookSession.  In it I created:

Private Sub Application_Startup()
    MsgBox "startup test "
End Sub

I closed Outlook, and re-opened.  I do not see a message "startup test"

What am I doing wrong?
