Error sending email from Excel macro

[TinaP]

I’m getting the error message Run-time error '-2147024770 (8007007e)' on the highlighted line of my code. This only happens on one computer. Other computers running the same macro work fine.

From what I can figure out, I need to re-register a dll or some other file, but I don't have any idea where to start. How do I find out what file needs to be re-registered on that computer?

It took this long for me to get an opportunity to test the suggestion in the link, but it worked perfectly.

Since that link took forever to wade through, I'm reposting just the part of it that helped me:

If you get an error from a code statement like this:

Set ol = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")

the cause may be an anti-virus program on your computer that has a feature to block Outlook scripting. The solution is to turn off the script blocking feature.

If you're using Symantec Anti Virus, make a backup of the Windows registry, and then see if these changes solve the problem:

1. Go to the HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Outlook.Application\CLSID key and note the (Default) value. It will be a GUID, most likely {0006F03A-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}.

2. Now go to the key HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{0006F03A-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}\InprocServer32 key, using the value from Step 1 if it's different from that shown above.

3. For the (Default) for that key, you should see this value:

C:\Program Files\Common Files\Symantec Shared\Script Blocking\ScrBlock.dll

Delete that text, so that the key's (Default) value becomes (value not set)
