[dba-VB] Is Outlook Open (VB6)

I tried that but it doesn't always yield the correct results, so I chose to
handle it via API calls instead.

Paul,

How about something like this:

Dom objOut as object

On Error Resume Next

set objOut = GetObject("Outlook.Application")

if Err <> 0 Then
  MsgBox "Outlook is not open"
Else
  Msgbox "Outlook is open"
End if
