The only thing I do in Outlook is extract a line of code from a daily e-mail
and paste it into a Word table, using a variation of the code we discussed
on an earlier occasion.
I don't appear to be able to do anything in code with the object.
I don't get an OMG (?) prompt or any other prompt or error message. The
Outlook message window opens the addressee and subject are filled and (if
nothing is entered in the ".Body =" line) the default theme is used. The
cursor is in the body area and nothing is pasted. Pressing CTRL V or
clicking the Paste button pastes the formatted text.
I don't know if it is a clue, but if I enter
.GetInspector
and then a period vba prompts with the options - including
.WordEditor
If I add a period to the end of that, there isn't the usual prompt offering
.Range etc (though it doesn't baulk at its addition).
It doesn't make any difference whether or not Outlook is running.
