A function is any activity like a country fair. Access is a ticket to get in. Outlook. He wants to know what the chances are of you buying him a ticket.
sorry, I couldn't help myself
We are looking to run a Sub "Runme: from a module in Outlook through Access.
I have looked everywhere and spoke to some other analysts on our team and we are stuck.
Replies that can assist with this problem are greatly appreciated.

When asked for more specifics, repeating what you already have supplied does not move the issue forward.
Outlook has its own object model (google it) so "run a function" is meaningless so long as you do not provide any context.

Hmm, well I'm going to *waste peoples time*...
So, I type *Run a Function from Access for Outlook* in Google and I get 53,700,000 returns...

Because depending on WHAT you are trying to run will depend on the code and/or IF it can be done. Saying it doesn't matter what the Function is is incorrect, it does. However, since you are unwilling to provide details, click the link above perhaps it will give you what you are looking for. If not, PLEASE provide some specifics.

Your right, that is what you just did.
I am only replying to my initial post for the future me's that search and find this....
Initially I created a function in Outlook that that checks for items in the inbox.
What i was attempting to do was from an Access db, open Outlook and run the Function from Outlook.
However, when i moved the Outlook Function to Access (have to make a couple tweeks) I was able to open Access, and run the function within Access that modified Outlook as i saw fit.
I hope this helps anyone in a similar situation.
Thank you
