Thanks Nadya and all

I have added this to my procedure library

>>I am going to use the Outlook object to move mail to the deleted folder.
>>
>>However some of my clients will not have "Outlook Express" instead of Outlook so I will not be giving them this functionality, since I understand the Outlook object is not available in Outlook Express.
>>
>>I need to be able to detect if the full Outlook object is available for my code to use.
>>How do I do this?
>>
>>
>>Many Thanks
