Using The Bat! v1.62i on Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 1

I have an Access database that contains customer details, which
includes dates on which subscriptions are due. I contact most
customers via e-mail. With other mail clients (e.g. Outlook) I've been
able to use MAPI from within Access, WScript, etc. to create and send
messages automatically and store copies of the sent messages in the
Sent folder for the appropriate account. However, I fall over at the
first hurdle with TB as the default MAPI client. For example, in VBA:

  Dim objMAPI As Object
  Set objMAPI = CreateObject("MAPI.Session")

causes a run-time error because ActiveX can't create the object.

So is it possible to use OLE Automation / ActiveX to "drive" TB in
this way? If so, do I need to upgrade to 2.x to get that
functionality?

TIA,
