Hi all

Someone on the general board pointed me in this direction.

I have the following code to use the emails returned from a query, open
outlook and bcc them.

It gives a run time error sayinig it doesn't support the property or
method for

 Set objRecip = MyMail.Recipients.AddMailList("email")
            objRecip.Type = olBCC

but I've checked all the object libraries I can find that are
applicable to this-anyone have any idea which ones I might be missing?
I have the offfice and outlook ones.

I also need to set a To address, so some mailboxes won't reject
them-does any have any idea how to do that?

Any help greatly appeciated.

mailing.", _
