I don't have CDO 1.21 installed here, so the script below uses Redemption


set Session = CreateObject("Redemption.RDOSession")
Session.MAPIOBJECT = Application.Session.MAPIOBJECT
for each Item in Application.ActiveExplorer.Selection
set RDOItem = Session.GetMessagefromID(Item.EntryID)
set Sender = RDOItem.Sender
if not (Sender Is Nothing) Then
MsgBox Sender.City
end if
next

The next script is using CDO 1.21, but I did not have a chance to actually
test it

set Session = CreateObject("MAPI.Session")
Session.MAPIOBJECT = Application.Session.MAPIOBJECT
for each Item in Application.ActiveExplorer.Selection
set CDOItem = Session.GetMessage(Item.EntryID)
set Sender = CDOItem.Sender
if not (Sender Is Nothing) Then
MsgBox Sender.City
end if
next

Thanks for the update Dmitry, however I do not understand what you are
refering to nor how to do what you have stated (I say that I need an
example
previously) ..... Any chance you can post a small example?

Thanks Dmitry, regretfully the CDO example doesn't work... I get an error on
MAPIOBJECT: "Method or data member not found (Error 461)"....

Do you get that error on reading the Application.Session.MAPIOBJECT or
setting the Session.MAPIOBJECT property.
Where does your code run?

on
MAPIOBJECT: "Method or data member not found (Error 461)"....

I get the error on:
Session.MAPIOBJECT = Application.Session.MAPIOBJECT

Regretfully the help isn't 'helpful' here, since I can't find any
information about this, or what would be 'correct'.....

That line contains two statements. One is reading the property. Another one
is setting it. Can you break that line in two to see which one fails?

set temp = Application.Session.MAPIOBJECT
Session.MAPIOBJECT = temp

Is this Access? If, Session intrinsic variable points to an Access object.
Rename the Session variable in the script to somethign like CDOSession.

Again, where does your code run?
I'm trying to get this working on Outlook 2003 (11.8313.8221) SP3.

Another words, Outlook VBA (Alt-F11 in Outlook).

Session is also an intrinsic variable in VBA. Try the following (it does
work)

PR_LOCALITY = &H3A27001E

Set cdoSession = CreateObject("MAPI.Session")

Set temp = Application.Session.MAPIOBJECT

cdoSession.MAPIOBJECT = temp

For Each Item In Application.ActiveExplorer.Selection

Set CDOItem = cdoSession.GetMessage(Item.EntryID)

Set Sender = CDOItem.Sender

If Not (Sender Is Nothing) Then

Set Field = Sender.Fields.Item(PR_LOCALITY)

If Not (Field Is Nothing) Then

MsgBox Field.Value

End If

End If

Next

Hopfully this reply is posted. Tried several time, and for some reason its
not posting.

When I run the code you posted above I get:
Compile error:

Assignment to constant not permitted

on this line:
Set CdoSession = CreateObject("MAPI.Session")

Try setting a reference to CDO.DLL in the references for your VBA project.

Hi Ken,

Try setting a reference to CDO.DLL in the references for your VBA project.
I have this already:
Microsoft CDO 1.21 Library
C:\Program Files\Common Files\System\MSMAPI\1033\CDO.DLL

I'm starting to think this isn't possible.......
