I'm using Outlook 2003. I am so frustrated and would really appreciate your

help. I have a procedure with parameters (e.g., sub NoMoreManual(myitem as

mailitem)

but I cannot figure how to run it!

I have looked in HELP and read the threads in this forum. One said that if

have parameters, it cannot be run via the RUN icon (or macros, run) and that

that you need to use run-a-script or rules wizard. I save my procedure,

then go into rules and still do not see it. I have search HELP on

run-a-script to no avail.

If I take the parameters out, then it runs, but get error messages, of course.

HELP!
 
You need to provide a procedure that tells outlook which "myitem" to run this

procedure against. Something like:

Sub RunIt()

Set thisItem = <some code to return a MailItem
Call NoMoreManual(thisItem)

End Sub

We can't help you with the <some code> portion until you provide a more

complete picture of your scenario. In other words, what message do you want

to run the NoMoreManual() procedure against?

Thank you so much for responding to my question!! (I'm excited "to meet

you". I've ordered your book!)

I'm finding Outlook VBA very challenging. I've worked a lot with Access

VBA and some in Excel, but Outlook VBA is baffling.

What I'm actually trying to do (unsuccessfully I might add) is:

in a specific folder

folder contains COPIES of emails sent with attachments

go through each email and do a REPLY with different addressees

than the original email (same addressees each time, though)

and WITHOUT the attachment

then delete the email

The addressees must receive these emails without the attachments as the

attachments have limited information, but the addressees must have the

contents of the email iteself.

It sounds so easy, but ...

I was trying out different things I found in forum threads and the help

file, but immediately stumbled when I could find the procedure I just created.

The simplest way to process a folder other than the one you're currently

looking at is to use the Namespace.PickFolder method to display the built-in

folder picker dialog and return the folder that the user choosers. Then, you

can process each item in the folder, for example:

On Error Resume Next

Set myFolder = Application.Session.PickFolder()

If Not myFolder Is Nothing Then

For Each itm in myFolder.Items

Call NoMoreManual(itm)

Next

End If
