Redemption assistance

[nigelandrewfoster]

I want to do something quite simple: automate my sending of invoices to customers, something currently taking an hour a week. Keep hitting the security patch snag on Outlook, and installed Redemption, but got completely lost trying to follow the online instructions for its use. Can anyone recommend a website/other resource that can take me through the steps in plain English, please? Thanks.

I cannot help you with Redemption because I use the Self-Signed Certificate method for my Outlook automation instead of that.
You can find out how to do that at:

It would of course have to be 'installed' on each PC using the code.

What are you actually stuck on? The code changes to use Redemption are minimal as I recall - you simply declare a Safe... Object and assign your actual Outlook item to its Item property, then code as before.

I'll have another look and give you some more details. It's just verey unfamiliar territory.
