Have you tried using Tools | References to remove the reference to Outlook and then restore it? You can also run Office Diagnostics to repair Outlook 2007.

FYI, there is a newsgroup specifically for general Outlook programming issues "down the hall" at microsoft.public.outlook.program_vba or, via web interface, at http://www.microsoft.com/office/comm....program_v ba

I have mulitple office versions installed (Access 97, 2000, 2003, Office
2003, Office 2007)
Unitl recently automation to Outlook from Access worked (in Access 2003)
However something (update, installation of visio, project 2003,...?????)
created an issue.
Any of my code trying to create the outlook object gives the following kind
of error: "automation error, the specified module could not be found"
The reference is set to "C:\Program Files\Microsoft
Office\Office12\MSOUTL.OLB", this file is still there?
Is there any way to register this file again or to solve it otherwise. I
read somewhere that a reinstall of office might be necessary which could be
a complete nightmare as i have all thise different versions. Could I just
install and reinstall Outllook?

Thx
