Outlook email automation help

I am desperate for some help on doing email with Outlook using OLE from a VB
app that will call out to Outlook to send email.

There are 2 reasons I believe I need to use OLE. First, I must add info to
the email message (to the body of the message) *after* the user has clicked
on Send to send the message in Outlook, and before it actually gets sent.

Second, I must capture the final message and store it into a table. Which
means, I must capture the message after the user has clicked on Send and
before it actually goes out.

Does anyone have some specific help (maybe some sample code?) on how I can
accomplish these tasks?

Many, many thanks for any and all ideas,
Mark

I think what you need to use is Outlook COM automation. Take a look at
various item Send examples at www.outlookcode.com for ideas.
