Good Morning,

Our Atlanta WINNT server runs MS Exchange server.
This is linked to MS Exchange server on a
Windows NT server in Utah. The Utah
server has the Global address list.
The separate servers do NOT have
a trusted domain set up.
That's probably the problem.

I just found out that we have a
copy of the global address list on our
local public folder on the WINNT server
called 'recipients'.

My network pc is a Win95 box.
I can always access the
Global address list through the
MS Outlook application.

Why won't the code below work?
I get the OLE error:name Global address list
is not found.

Maybe I should use the copy of the
global address list in 'recipients' folder.
But I would have to somehow access the folder,
after the code that reads:
>oFolder = oNs.GetDefaultfolder(10)
> oITEMS=oFolder.items
How would I navigate to the folder using code?

Thank you for the help.

Regards,

Ed Hill

You asked:
Are you running MS Exchange server? You won't have a global address list without it.
