My first guess would be that you don't have Mapi properly registered on your
machine... have you verified that "Mapi.Session" works in other contexts? (If
nothing else, you can open regedit and search for that string, to see if there's
anything registered at all...) Also keep in mind that the identifier string
should be case-sensitive, so you may want to double-check your casing.... (just
in case ;) )
I'd also suspect Mapi.Session of not being an IDispatch interface, but if you're
pulling this from the examples in the book then I suppose that's not likely.
