I want to write a macro to assign to the toolbar. I would like to
click the button before I send a message and have Outlook set the
"Request a read receipt for this message" to true. I can't find
anything in the help files on this. Is this possible?

TIA,
JD

The object browser is your friend: Press ALt+F11 to open the VBA environment
in Outlook, then press F2. Switch from <All Libraries> to Outlook to browse
all Outlook objects and their properties, methods, and events. Select any
object or member, then press F1 to see its Help topic.

If you search for Receipt, you'll find that the MailItem object has a
ReadReceiptRequested property.

Thanks, Sue. I had looked in object browser, but didn't really know
what I was looking for or how to find it. Thanks again.
