I've created a macro that should enable me to select part of a text from a received email, paste that text to the macro, then that macro will launch IE with a full URL with that selected text. e.g. selected is '2804837', the URL in the macro is "http://www.whatever.com?ticid=". IE will be launched with that URL but added to that is the selected text to have a full URL pointing me to the exact page. See code: Sub View_Support_Ticket() Dim objOL As Application Dim objDoc As Object Dim objSel As Object Dim objIEApp As SHDocVw.InternetExplorer Dim dummy As String Set objOL = Application Set objDoc = objOL.ActiveInspector.WordEditor Set objSel = objDoc.Windows(1).Selection Set objIEApp = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application") objIEApp.Navigate "http://support.ticket.com?ticid=" & objSel objIEApp.Visible = True Set objIEApp = Nothing End Sub The problem is that when I select the text in an opened email item (double clik on the email message) and lauch the macro I get an error message pop up: "Sub or Function not defined". However, when I launch the macro from the MS visual basic editor, it runs perfectly... What am I doing wrong here? Quite a newbe on this btw...
