At the moment I'm trying to make up an automatic mailer in work, I have a text box with a standard template and a few fill in the blanks.<br />
<br />
My problem is that when I'm sending a mail and fill in the 'to' field I have to know the exact username or exact name for visual basic to validate it with outlook or I get an error saying the user can't be validated.<br />
<br />
I saw in another application how they had a text box done up like the 'to' field in outlook and when you type in a partial name the actual outlook address book popped up.<br />
<br />
Does anyone know how to do this?<br />
<br />
I'm connecting to outlook through the reference<br />
e.g. <br />
Dim ol As Outlook.Application<br />
Dim ns As Outlook.NameSpace<br />
Dim newMail As Outlook.MailItem<br />
etc...
