[cw-discuss] Outlook 2003 Links in email messages

Hello,

I was tried without result click on an email message's hyperlink inside the
text. I've seen responses says that outlook insists on opening links in IE
and in windows 2000 bottle it doesn't work.

So tired to find how to do that I tested other way. "copy the text paste in
word and click the link". So thinking and think I decided use VBA to
partially resolve the problem. I made a very simple macro that saves the
selected message in HTML and then opens it with Firefox.

That's it.

Tell me what do you think.


Public Sub openMailInIE()

    Dim obj As Object

    Set obj = ActiveExplorer.Selection.Item(1)

    obj.SaveAs "z:\tmp\tmp.html", OlSaveAsType.olHTML

    Shell "z:\usr\bin\firefox file:///tmp/tmp.html"


End Sub


Link it to a toolbar's button.

Regards,
Carlos
