The suggestion I made was only if the code is running in the Outlook VBA
project, not in Excel or some other application. Is the code running in
Outlook? If not then go back to using CreateObject().

Unless there's additional code you haven't shown, the code you did show does
nothing to touch Subject so I can't see how the subject would be blanked.

thank Ken,

unfortunately, it does get blank everytime I use this code.

Btw, I tried your offered suggestion. However I'm not quite sure I
understood it, because now I get a compile error:
" Method or data not found" - with the new code line highlighted

should I make anymore changes in the code so that your offered change
would work?

Thanks
