Last reviewed: May 8, 1997
Article ID: Q146550

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Exchange Windows 3.x client, versions 4.0 and 5.0
Microsoft Exchange Windows NT client, versions 4.0 and 5.0
Microsoft Exchange Windows 95 client, versions 4.0 and 5.0

SYMPTOMS

When you call the objSession.AddressBook method in the Microsoft Object Linking and Embedding Messaging interface from a Microsoft Visual Basic (VB) 4.0 16 bit extended Microsoft Electronic Forms Designer (EFD) 4.0 form, the address dialog might appear in the background and not have the focus during runtime.

WORKAROUND

The following code can be used as a workaround:

   Dim frmhwnd As Long
   frmhwnd = Me.hWnd
   Dim objrecipcoll As Object
   Set objrecipcoll=mfobj.Session.AddressBook(Title:="List of Addresses",_
       forceResolution:=True, recipLists:=1, toLabel:="&Names", _
       parentwindow:=frmhwnd)
