I am sorry, I did not mean that you should debug it; I just don't know what I
am doing. I went to 'help" and found out what the 'locals window" is. b/c I
did not kow what it was.
I thought that I could copy /paste the result in this e-mail but I do not
see an avenue to do that.

So, I ran it w/o breaks and it just shows this but, this is probably not
helpful:

ONs nothing Name space
Ostore nothing store
colrules nothing rules
orule nothing rule

then when I put a breakpoint at the end of the set colrules o store linee,
it gives me a ton of lines, what should I look for? Most have "+" signs and
I able to expand it

At least I understand now what you want me to do.

Open the Locals window, that will show all variables in scope and their
values. I mentioned that earlier in the thread.

What are values of the vairables? Is there a way to see that?

All I know is if I run it and/or brekapoint it , then it either does
nothing, that is litterally nothing happens OR it opens VB and shows me
the
first line in yellow

.

If you looked at locals when the code had finished they would all be Nothing
(null). What you want to do is to put the breakpoint on the line after
colRules is set.

You should then see valid objects for NameSpace, Store and Rules objects.
For example instead of Nothing you'd be able to expand the value and see
settings such as Name.

That tells you the base objects you need are all set. Then using F8 to step
the code one executable line at a time you can execute that line of code and
see what other variables are doing. Does the rule you want get found and
instantiated as oRule, etc.

OK, I put my cursor at the end of the line
Set colRules = oStore.GetRules()
right click, toggle , breakpoint, it turns brown,
click run and it shows

+module4 module4/module4
no variables
+ : oNS : : NameSpace/NameSpace
+ : oStore : : Store/Store
: colRules : Nothing : Rules
: oRule : Nothing : Rule

So I don't see Namespace, store and rules, I see what is above.

Now what? I cannot expand colRules or oRule there is no + sign

orules nothing

So what happens if you press F8 after you hit the breakpoint? You should be
in the line after setting colRules and colRules should not be Nothing and
should now have a + that you can expand to see properties such as Count,
which should have a number. Another F8 should instantiate your oRule object
and that then should not be Nothing and should be expandable to show
properties such as Name.

which should have a number WHERE?

In case you didn't know it all caps is hard to read and is considered as
shouting.

I have no idea what's going on. If you never get valid NameSpace, Store or
Rules collection objects obviously the code will never fire the rule. But
the code to get those objects should just work.

You are running this in Outlook 2007, with nothing in the code other than
what's been shown, and no errors are fired?

Select Tools, Trust Center and select the Macro Security tab. What is the
setting there? What about on the Programmatic Access tab?

Something is drastically wrong with your setup or there's something going on
that we're not being told about. Otherwise at minimum the line setting
NameSpace would work.
