Question

I made an Outlook macro. How can I deploy it to use it on some other machine?

Do I follow the same steps I followed on my machine Tools-> Macros-> create new or is there another way to deploy as we do with the vb or C# projects?

Answer 1

No, you don’t need to follow the same steps and re-record the entire macro from scratch. You can save the module containing the macro and import it in Outlook on the other machine.

In Outlook’s VBA editor, right-click your module > Export File…

Then on the other machine, in Outlook’s VBA editor, right-click your project > Import File…

EDIT You say that your Outlook doesn’t have VB Editor. Quoting from Outlook help:

you may be running a Microsoft Office
program with the Visual Basic for
Applications (VBA) shared feature disabled.

I don’t know what version of Outlook you have, but for 2003:

To re-enable VBA, follow these steps:

1.Run the Office Setup program again. How? Quit all programs.Double-click
the Add/Remove Programs icon in the
Microsoft Windows Control Panel.Do one
of the following: If you installed
your Office program as part of
Microsoft Office, click Microsoft
Office in the Currently installed
programs box, and then click the
Change button.If you installed your
Office program individually, click the
name of your program in the Currently
installed programs box, and then click
the Change button.

2.On the Features to install screen in the Setup program, click the plus sign
(+) next to Office Shared Features.

3.Select Visual Basic for Applications, click the arrow next to
your selection, and then click Run
from My Computer.
