I currently have an application where you can drag drop a mail item from outlook into my application. Now for various reasons I need the same instance of Outlook that is running

I have tried looking into what proccesses are open, and find the Outlook application that way, but it doesn't seem to be possible to turn this process into an Outlook.Application

I also tried outlookObject = GetObject(, "Outlook.Application"), but apparently that doesn't work either (I would assume that it would return nothing, if Outlook was closed, but it doesn't?)

Is there another way of doing this?
