If you can get VBA to work in JNI then yea. Otherwise I don't see how but then I am not an outlook expert.

TBH I wouldn't have a clue. I know VBA but not Java, I'm only learning that at the moment. JNI. Looks a bit beyond me at the moment.

Its easy enough. Search this board you will find links to tutorials. It is basically allowing you to make DLL calls within Java.

The Microsoft SDK for Java will allow you to put a COM Callable Wrapper around Java classes. Basically this turns them into a COM dll which you will be able to call from VBA. I don't know how it works the other way (Java -> VBA) as I've never had to do that but I don't remember it being difficult. Many ways to skin a cat and all that.
