Access the SenderName

[Tiger Chen]

When I want to return the SenderName in my own VBA code, OL will pop up a message "...some code is trying to access the mail address... do you allow...". Can we turn this alert off?

I search the answer on internet, I found too much questions on this but no good solution yet.

There is a software named "..ClickYes..." can remove the alert when it runs.

Does anybody know how to disable the alert in VBA? Thanks.

This will give you an idea how you could do this : http://vbaexpress.com/forum/showpost...04&postcount=4

Hi Charlize, Thanks for your reply!
I agree this should work. However, I just copy your code into my outlook code, it doesn't work.
I use debug.print to return wnd and res. Both are 0. I'm not familar with API. Do you know why?

Do we need to change this statement:
wnd = FindWindow("EXCLICKYES_WND", 0&)

If you would show your code, it would certainly help to see what's going on. And that clickyes program must, of course, be present and running.

Paste this in a separate module. Now, we need a rule for every new mail and perform the script 'show_msg_box'.[VBA]Option Explicit

Thanks a lot!

I found Outlook is really not user-friendly!
