Hi,

I had touched with simple macros using macros recorder, but I cannot do the
following task with the recorder.

When I click on the "Reply" button to compose a reply email, I want my
Outlook to automatically add the recipient full name to the salutation line.
How could I do that?

Thanks.
 
You need a variable declared WithEvents in the module head to receive the
commandbar button click. You get that reference via
Application.ActiveExplorer.Commandbars.FindControl(,354).

In the button click event procedure, if you hit the button from the opened
item then set a MailItem variable to Application.ActiveInspector.CurrentItem
else to Application.ActiveExplorer.Selection(1).

That MailItem has a SenderEMailAddress property. Search that address within
your Contacts folder to get its FirstName, LastName and Title.
