Hello,

Is it possible to answer automatically e.g. I get a message with two Buttons
Yes and No.

I want to answer with VBA the "Yes" Button.

Sincerely
Marius
 
Use the MailItemActions collection to retrieve the corresponding action and
call Action.Execute. For the voting style actions, it will return the new
mail item, all you need to do is send it (MailItem.Send)

Hello,

Thank you.

It works. But why I get two Security Dialogs?

....
Dim myItem2 As Outlook.MailItem

Set myItem2 = objAppt.Actions("Yes").Execute
myItem2.Send
......

What is wrong?

Sincerely,
Marius
 
Because Action.Execute and MailItem.Send raise the security prompts?
Are you running this code from Outlook VBA or something else (e.g. Excel
VBA)?

Yes from Access VBA.

Sincerely,
Marius

I know the Outlook Redemption Library.

But is it possible with only on Security promt? Without use Redemption.
 
Redemption won't help with Action.Execute, so you only options are really
1. switch to Outlook 2007 and make sure the AV app is up to date
2. Disable the security prompts using the admin form
3. Run your code either as an Outlook COM add-in or in Outlook VBA.
