Hey Team,

I am trying to get an Image viewer macro for outlook to work, and despite
wracking my brain, I don't see my mistake. It compiles, the code looks right,
but it dosen't activate. Of note, this is my 3rd VBA project and I am
using the examples found at http://msdn2.microsoft.
com/en-us/library/aa168469(office.11).aspx . Thank you Mr. Legault for
posting the code that you did.

Here is the source I am using, any help would be excellent thank you.
