Hi All,

We use a code that automatically sends a notification to a user when a
certain document arrived in our system.
Now we are having problems sending these emails since we have two
people with the same name in our Addressbook.

Set olMailItem = olInbox.Items.Add
olMailItem.To = sUser
olMailItem.Send

We have the users "Doe, J" and "Doe, J (ABC)"

Now outlook wants to know to which user we want to send the email and
the automatic notification code
stops and creates an error.

Is there some way (we already tried changing one of the names in the
Addressbook) we can solve this?

Marco

Try using the email address or Exchange alias instead of the name.
