Hmmm....

I'm having problems getting past the first step. I've tried the examples on
that page and they don't seem to work as code behind the form. I've also
tried some samples from CDOLive.com site, but I keep getting the error:

"ActiveX component can't create object: 'MAPI.Session'
Error: 800A01AD

All I'm testing is a simple Logon script for now:

Dim objSession
Set objSession = CreateObject("MAPI.Session") 'This is the line where it
breaks
objSession.Logon "Administrator", "Password", False, False, 0

Could you tell me what would be wrong?

Thanks,

John
