Hi

We are writing an application in Access 2000 that links it to an exchange server. The app can then receive and validate email's. We have attached the app to an exchange server using the Outlook Class in VBA. But when the email address are imported in to access the address seems to be the display name only eg

bloggs,f
bloggs,f
bloggs,f

ie it seems to be the same user. What it shoud be is

bloggsf01
bloggsf02
bloggsf03

Is their any way of accessing the actual email address rather that the display name??

Many thanks

Simon
 
Don't know how you feel about macros, but in the SendObject you can enter the actual To, CC and BCC email addresses.

Thanks For your response smack
But if you notice from my message I do not have a problem with sending emails only with RECEIVING them.

Any further suggestions??????
