  Thank you, johntau, and sorry for the late response, I tried your suggestion but it lead me to another error, =(

  Error Type:
  Server object, ASP 0178 (0x80070005)
  The call to Server.CreateObject failed while checking permissions. Access is denied to this object.

  Thanks again.. ü

  hello

  you must set the parameters in the dcomcnfg ( start, execute then dcomcnfg )
  search for the outlook object and set the correct user in the identity tab
