How in the hell would Outlook function without MAPI? It's impossible! Most of the PEMs in Outlook are simple wrappers to MAPI functions. And you cannot open a Folder without getting the MAPI NameSpace!

Sorry I can't help you but when you resolve this you might want to write a FAQ or KB on your troubles.......


>>MAPI would *have* to be installed as that's the only NameSpace that Outlook supports.

>> Oh well, that being said, why not include MSMAPI32.OCX in the Setup and indicate that it has to be registered in the Setup Wizard? What the heck, it might work.
