Hi.

I'm using VB.NET to read emails in Outlook 2003.
Here are my 2 puzzling situations:
 1) I "Dim oApp As New Outlook.Application" and Dim whatever else I
    need in a Sub.
    Before exiting the Sub I "oApp.Quit" and "oApp = Nothing".
    However, in Task Manager I can still see Outlook running.
    How to I get Outlook to close down completely?

 2) The Inbox that I check has emails coming in and out. However,
    when I call the Sub that reads the emails it only finds the ones
    at a certain time and will not refresh until I restart the
    program. Even though the Sub Dims the Outlook application and
    sets it to Nothing before exiting, when I call that Sub again it
    will only return the same emails as the previous loop, even
    though there may actually be more emails. Only on restarting the
    program will I then get the new emails.

    I looked for a Refresh method for the Outlook application (also
    on Outlook Folders) but could not find anything.

Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated!
