[AccessD] Outlook Question

[James Button]

Or maybe permissions for one app to initiate another 

I have a similar setup for security in that I have set 
(so long ago I forget how)
that one app selection of a link in an email, is not allowed to have the OS
initiate a browser app.
To process such things as a link wanting to use a browser there needs to be an
existing EDGE session,
however a doubleclick on a web link shortcut is allowed to initiate the EDGE
browser.

I found that the program runs perfectly if outlook is open and fails if it
is not open.

Could this have something to do with late binding?
