Excel lookup (using Outlook config) to resolve name to internal email address

Greetings,

I have a column in which I am entering names of people, one per cell. Is there a way to have the cell resolve the name to an emaill address where the result is the user name as it appears in the GAL?

Thank you!

Thank you! I will check this out when I am not on the road... :)
Hi Ejgil,

this error was thrown: ActiveX component can't create object or return reference to this object (Error 429)

at this line: Set objSession = CreateObject("MAPI.Session")

I use Outlook and am not sure why the MAPI class isn't registered
Could be related to the Microsoft December 2014 update, disconnecting ActiveX controls.
I haven't tried it, but some refer to this MS Fix it, so try that.
