Default Reference Libraries

You don't use Option Explicit all the time?

You know you can set that in ToolsOptionsEditor tab, Require Variable
Declaration checkbox.

You are referring to late binding, which doesn't bind to the

application
type library at development/compile time, but makes multiple calls

at
runtime.

Essentially, rather than setting a reference to the type library via
ToolsReferences, and then declaring an object of type

Outlook.Application
or whatever, you create a generic Object variable and create that

object
rather than just New.

You lose access to the application's object model and intellisens

when you
do this, but there is another way, what I call Develop Early,

Release
Late.
An example is given (using Outlook) at
http://www.xldynamic.com/source/xld.EarlyLate.html

Develop Early, Release Late ? That sounds like something I want to
remember. Nice!
