I wonder how difficult is to get an very useful macro listing or addin for the
every day duty in small offices. The routine (exactly as outlook have foreseen for E-mails) is: - prepare a comunication for someone using MSWord (fax or letter); - find out his fax number and/or address and insert it in the fax or letter; - save in a draft folder; - print and show it to the boss for his ok; - open the file, make changes, save it as document not to be modified; - print and send it. I have a macro (working with a MS Accessdata base) in this way and I am not able to find somewere the listing for doing the same using outlook address book. Some one has already done something like this? Thank you! -- dilettante -- dilettante |

I don't see how any of those steps can be automated with a macro. Almost
everything you do is a one-click action (Print, Open, Save, Send) followed by a manual human oriented task that cannot be guessed at with code. Inserting an address into a Word document would be a candidate for a macro, IF there wasn't already a handy option to insert the address from a selected Contact in Outlook. -- Eric Legault - Outlook MVP, MCDBA, MCTS (SharePoint programming, etc.) Try Picture Attachments Wizard for Outlook: http://www.collaborativeinnovations.ca Blog: http://blogs.officezealot.com/legault/ "dilettante" wrote: I wonder how difficult is to get an very useful macro listing or addin for the every day duty in small offices.
