DOCUMENT:Q180172 11-JAN-2001 [vbwin] TITLE :PRB: "Login has failed" Error Using the MAPISession Control PRODUCT :Microsoft Visual Basic for Windows PROD/VER: OPER/SYS: KEYWORDS:kbGrpDSVBDB ====================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The information in this article applies to: - Microsoft Visual Basic Learning Edition for Windows, version 6.0 - Microsoft Visual Basic Professional Edition for Windows, version 6.0 - Microsoft Visual Basic Enterprise Edition for Windows, version 6.0 - Microsoft Visual Basic Standard Edition for Windows, versions 4.0, 5.0 - Microsoft Visual Basic Enterprise Edition for Windows, version 4.0 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SYMPTOMS ======== When calling the SignOn method of the MAPISession control, the following error may occur: Run-Time Error '32003' Login has failed. CAUSE ===== The LogonUI property of the MAPISession control is set to False and the UserName property of the control contains an invalid profile name or is empty. RESOLUTION ========== Set the UserName Property of the MAPISession control equal to a profile name that exists on the machine before the SignOn method of the control is called. STATUS ====== This behavior is by design. MORE INFORMATION ================ The MAPI 1.0 specification requires a profile to log on to a messaging session. The MAPISession control was written before the MAPI 1.0 specification was established. In order to use this control to establish a MAPI 1.0 session and prevent the Choose Profile dialog box from being displayed, the Username property must be used to pass the name of the profile needed to sign on.
