Deploying custom code
Macros are not easy to distribute. The professional approach is to develop
your solution as a COM Add-In and deploy it as Windows Installer packages. See the VBAProject.otm section he Writing VBA code for Microsoft Outlook: http://www.outlookcode.com/article.aspx?id=40 But if this is only two users, you might as well just copy over the macros and manually create a button linking it to the code - it'll take far less time than writing a COM Add-In (especially if you've never built one before). But keep it in mind for future projects! -- 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/ "Markus" wrote: I am putting together some code to write out the entryids for selected email to a file (thanks to Michael Bauer for the help) where my app can read the ids. I want this code to run from a custom button in OUtlook. My question concerns deploying this capabilty. That is, I need to deliver this to multiple clients who are running my app now. This means I can have at least 2 problems -- I need a way to have my client easily install the custom button and associate it to the code for their site. Is there a way to do this short of forcing them to do it manually thru outlook menus? And secondly, will I run into security issues in OL that will prevent them from running the code? I am new to OL programming. Truly appreciate any help on this, Mark |
