I am busy with a fresh installation of MS Office. Also trying the same on two other Win 8.1 machines. Taking some time to install and will post back here. (Along with the service packs and other updates before I test)

Thanks. Done. Win 8.1 Error Message: Runtime Error 429. Activex Component cannot create object. Win 7: Working as expected.

Done. The code stops on this line: Set OLook = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")

Thanks Spikepl. I did as advised. Removing the reference to Outlook causes the button to do nothing. No error message, no action, on Win 8.1. Send the mail without problems on Win 7. I re-checked the reference for all the other mail procedures in the application, I could not compile without it...

With or without the Error Line or Error Handler, I do not get the option to Debug or see where the problem lies. Just the error message I posted at the start of the post.

The reference to Outlook was already set. I changed the code as suggested. I went further and removed the template (sent the message from the standard Outlook template) None of this seems to make any difference to the Win 8.1 machine - curious thing this progress from Windows 7 which was happy...

Unfortunately this was not a references issue. All the right references are checked. With regard to the Current.ProjectPath, this would not have been an option since the application is used by six machines making it difficult to use a fixed path, but I tested it anyway. This did not resolve the...

Thanks for your interest Uncle Gizmo. The code follows. Although I used this case to seek help, the problem exists in all E Mail procedures and then only on the Windows 8.1 machine. All others, Windows 7, running as expected. Code begins:***************************** Private Sub...

I have a MS Access 2007 database running on 6 machines with windows 7 - no issues. The application sends e mails with and without attachments via MS Outlook. I have installed the application on a Windows 8.1 machine and get error when trying to send e mails from within the application...

Thanks PeterF. I will try this and post back. I understand the code, except for Set Calfolder = GetFolderPath("\\User@domain.com\Calendar") Do I need to sibstitute user details here? I am using Outlook 2007 and wondering if this is for exchange.

I use the code below which creates an appointment in Outlook default calendar. I need to add a few lines to create the appointment to an alternative calendar in the same pst file. I need to choose between three calendars in which to create the appointment and plan to select the calendar name...
