I am writing a VBA module to add a menu item and do some basic work behind
the scenes in Outlook.

I would like to put this together in a setup.exe type program for delivery
to my clients ... can this be done ?

Also, I am having a devil of a time getting a startup or autoexec type
function to add the menu item when Outlook starts ...

Is this even possible?

Wherever I add code (even in application.statup) it is ignored ???

many thanks all,

Distributing VBA code is not a good idea and not very robust. The best
practice is to use a COM addin and then you can add your UI in the
OnStartupComplete or OnConnection event handlers.
 
Sounds complicated ... is there a wrapper or helper to do this?

I have no idea how to write COM ... I just know vba ...
