Thanks the DoEvents insert helped. Now the macro opens the email &
prints it.

To end the macro I'd like for it to close the email window. What can
be added to this macro at the end to close the email window after
printing.

Also, is it not OK to post in multiple groups? I've done this in the
past in hopes of reaching more professionals like yourselves.

Thanks for your help,
Daniel

You could try to insert the command: DoEvents
between the line .Display and .Printout.

Are you using IMAP?

Thanks for the macro code. I created the macro, changed my security
levels to allow it now I get a message saying that "items in this
message are still loading. Please wait a moment and then try again.".
The message opens, nothing prints, I get the error message and the
email window remains open. I'm guessing Outlook needs more time to
load the email before it can print it? I tried this with all different
size emails (KB) and I got the same message.

Thanks again,
Dan

|| Hello,
||
|| I recently installed internet explorer 7 beta 3 update to my system

|| However I can print the email if I open it (doulbe click) and then
|| print it.
||
|| Doesn't look like microsoft has a fix for this yet so I was hoping

|| Pretty simple, but outlook doesn't have a macro recorder so I have

||
|| So can someone provide me with the code I need to do this. Again the
|| situation would be that I have the email already highlighted in the
|| preview plane and I'd like to have the marco open the email, print it
|| and then close it.
