Vary basic Outlook code.

[Vaughan]

I want to automatically open the categories dialog box when I send a message, or when I open one I have received. I expect this is pretty basic programming, but I can't get my head around how to code in Outlook (or even where to do it!).

Please could anyone offer a few simple pointers?

What version of Outlook? Outlook 2002 and later have a
MailItem.ShowCategoriesDialog method you can call for any mail item. That
method doesn't exist for earlier versions of Outlook.
