Saving an email in an Access Database

I have a VB6 application that manages tasks. When the status of a tack changes, the program generates an email and sends it thru outlook. I would like to have a table in access to save the emails for the purpose of documentation. Access has a type of object, but when i try to set the field to the MAPIMessage.object I get an error. Is what im trying to do possible and what am I doing wrong? Thanks

    Normally that kind of error is a type mismatch error. The object in Access and the Mapimessage.Object are 2 different things (even though they have the same name). If you cant get that to work let me suggest that you CC or BCC the email to a logging mailbox so you can look it up from several different machines. Then from the machine that sends the email write the fields to an access table. Setup your access datbase to have columns for SendTo, Subject, MessageText, TimeSent, etc. Good Luck Also search Microsoft.com for information on CDO and CDOSYS. You can use this instead of MAPI/Outlook profiles.
