Example
This Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) example creates a new e-mail message, uses the Add method to add "Dan Wilson" as a To recipient, sets the Subject property, and displays the message.
Sub CreateStatusReportToBoss()
Dim myOlApp As Outlook.Application
Dim myItem As Outlook.MailItem
Dim myRecipient As Outlook.Recipient
Set myOlApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
Set myItem = myOlApp.CreateItem(olMailItem)
Set myRecipient = myItem.Recipients.Add("Dan Wilson")
myItem.Subject = "Status Report"
myItem.Display
End Sub
If you use Microsoft Visual Basic Scripting Edition (VBScript) in a Microsoft Outlook form, you do not create the Application object, and you cannot use named constants. This example shows how to perform the same task using VBScript code.
Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Set myItem = Application.CreateItem(0)
Set myRecipient = myItem.Recipients.Add("Dan Wilson")
myItem.Subject = "Status Report"
myItem.Display
End Sub
