I get this message:
Automation error. The specified module could not be found.

When I run this code:
Sub CreateTask()
Dim objApp As Outlook.Application
Dim objTask As Outlook.TaskItem

Set objApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
Set objTask = objApp.CreateItem(olTaskItem)
With objTask
.Subject = "Subject"
.StartDate = CDate(ProximaFechaAcumulada) - CDate(15)
.DueDate = CDate(ProximaFechaAcumulada)
.Importance = olImportanceHigh

.Body = "Body" 'Here I need Right to Left

.Save
.ReminderSet = True
End With
End Sub

It fails on this line:
Set objApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")

I dont understand this behavior. I have checked the Reference to MS
Outlook Object Library on my system and Im having a problem with the code.
I tried to create a small tool to simplify things in our office, but it just
doesnt seem to work right. When I go to a few other machines in the office
it runs fine. I cant tell whats going on. Perhaps there is some kind of
esoteric setting that is different on my workstation... Id appreciate it if
someone could share some insight.

By chance do you have Outlook running when trying to run this macro? If so,
the code will fail because only one instance of OUtlook can be open at any
time.

Instead, try this code:

Sub GetOutlookReference()

'Outlook objects
Dim olApp As Outlook.Application

'Obtain a reference to Outlook
On Error Resume Next
Set olApp = GetObject(, "Outlook.Application")

'If Outlook isn't running, start it and remember
If olApp Is Nothing Then
Set olApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
End If

' If Outlook still isn't running, Outlook cannot open or is not installed
If olApp Is Nothing Then
Call MsgBox("Outlook could not be opened. Exiting macro.", _
vbCritical, Application.Name)
End If

End Sub

I cannot test this code since we do not have Outlook at work, but if you
still need help, I can test it at home. Otherwise, here's a link to the
Outlook VBA Newsgroup:
