I guess it depends on what you are really trying to do, and on how general you need this to be. MAPI is an abstraction. There is no promise that MAPI requests will have any effect at all on a user interface. The fact that you are seeing something update at all surprises me. The effect would be very different if you happened to be running a different MAPI provider. It might not even show a UI at all. If what you really want to do is control Outlook, then Tim G is right -- you need to control Outlook through Outlook's object model. If what you really want to do is send email, then MAPI is a more general answer, but you give up the user interface. -- Tim Roberts, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Providenza & Boekelheide, Inc. _______________________________________________ python-win32 mailing list python-win32@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-win32
