Default Creating an Outlook 2007 Distribution List Using MS Access

Quite some time back I put together some VBA code to create an Outlook 2003
distribution list from an MS Access 2003 database. Pretty straight forward:
name and e-mail. In short, the code created an empty distribution list and
blank message. It then added recipients to the message, then added the
recipients to the distribution list.

In Outlook 2007, 'Recipient' is now read-only which appears to break the
code that worked under 2003. I have tried all sorts of variants of the code
trying to take into account the changes for Outlook 2007. Best I can tell,
short of creating a contact, then adding the contact to the distribution
list, there does not seem to be a simple way of just taking e-mail addresses
and names to create a distribution list. I tried some Google searches, but
did not have any luck there either.

Anyone know of any samples out there? Anyone willing to throw me a bone
(hopefully with some code on it!) on this one?!

Thanks!!

Don
