Declaring libraries

[Peepain]

Hi,

I need to "Dim O As New Outlook.Application" but I can't find the way to do it. It shows error everytime.

I just declared "Microsoft Outlook View Control" in the references but it still doesn't work.

Somebody could help me please..

Thanks

You need to add Microsoft Outlook x.x Object Library to your references.

Thanks, I could do it. As I can imagine this will work only for the outlook version that I have prepared the application with?

Thanks again.

You could leave the reference out of your application and then do the following.

Dim otlApplication As Object

Set otlApplication = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")

This will let you use whatever version you have installed on the computer. The drawback is that without the reference, you don't have use of the autocomplete of the properties and methods when coding.
