Over the years I have developed a list of about 1,000
contacts in Outlook. I would like to begin marketing to
them more effectively via email with occaisional news
items and other items of interest (I know all of these
people, this is not spam).

I wrote some code in Access to import the names from
Outlook along with their categories so that I could do
queries and select subsets to send different emails to. I
wrote some code in Access to do this.

My problem: when the code to send the email runs from
Access (in windows XP and office XP) I get a message from
Outlook warning that another program is trying to take
over and it asks do I want to click OK to permit this? I
am glad Outlook checks for this in case a virus takes
over, but in this case the warning message is a problem as
I have to click OK for every email.

Is there a way around this?

Thanks,
Eric Fraint
