I have a button that reads..

RetVal = Shell("cmd.exe /k """"c:\program

files\netinst\niinst32.exe"",/Execute:{189BF48719-4BCA-4332-9C3E-F98UYTVBN6A86} /install""""")

It works fine in a Word .doc however when I cut and paste the entire doc

into Outlook 2003. It will not work. The "Links" I have on the document work

fine but the button does not. Any ideas why? Thanks in advance

Outlook messages don't run code. Please stick to your original discussion

thread, rather than starting a new one.
