Outlook Attachment Check

Hi All,

Ever send an e-mail where you promised an attachement... but forgot to attach it? I was thinking about a little VBA code that would check every mail you were to send for the words 'please find attached', etc - and if there's nothing attached it should give a little message box. Would save a lot of grief, I'd say.

Problem is, I never coded anything for Outlook, so I'm a bit lost. Actually I'm completely lost. I'd really appreciate some help, for example; what are the events for 'the send button is clicked' and how can I see whether a file is attached. Also, I probably need to detect, in case of a forward or a reply, which is the new text.

Any help is really appreciated! Of course if I get it to work, I'll post it here so you can all benefit from this to-be-killer-feature.

Thanks, Evert
