Start my Outlook from a server
 
I have a database that generates an email for sending out orders. The
database was originally located on my computer and worked just fine. It has
now been moved to a server. The CreateObject("Outlook.application") in the
VB code of the database opens Outlook on the server. Is there any way to
make it open Outlook on the computer of whoever is accessing the database?
Thanks.

Start my Outlook from a server
 
Not only can Outlook only be run locally on that machine, but Outlook is not
suitable for running unattended or for unattended automation. Outlook shows
modal warnings and errors that require UI intervention.
