[AccessD] Urgent - missing Outllok in Refs

Charlotte- I've re-installed the CDO under Outlook install options and restarted the system. After trying a few other things as well - removing references and adding them again for Outlook I am still crashing with 

'Automation error - the specified module cannot be found'

on this line - 

Set nms = appOutlook.getnamespace ("MAPI")

I have a little more background on this new PC:

- PC was bought from Dell with Word and Powerpoint 2003 installed.

- Office 2000 was then installed by another person.

- Only now has the user tested our Access app with Outlook.

Any tips?

  Yup, that's the missing CDO,  Collaborative Data Objects.  When you
  install Office, you have to drill down in the Outlook part and check the
  CDO item to include it in the install.  Otherwise, no MAPI calls.  You
  can ONLY install CDO using a custom installation, not the default.

  Hi Charlotte - yes Outlook is installed. I have removed the old ref to
  Outlook 9 and then gone back thru' the ref list and found Outlook 11 and
  ticked that.

  But now when I use the function which looks for Outlook the code falls
  over with 'Automation error - the specified module cannot be found'

  Line where crash happens:

  Set nms = appOutlook.getnamespace ("MAPI")


  NB: This code has always worked until she has had Office re-installed
  (same version - 2000). I have had a look at the install and it seems
  fine - what else can I check? What is the CDO?

  THanks - Kath

    Is Outlook installed on the machine?  Even if it is, you can't use it
    from Access unless the CDO was installed as well.  It isn't by
  default,
    but you can do a custom reinstall and add it.
