Problem is---the attachment isn't getting attached to the email! Here's the code: *Example format taken from google web find: *mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] report&body=see attachment&attachment="/my_location_virtual_path/myfile.lis" LOCAL loShell loShell = NEWOBJECT("_ShellExecute", HOME()+"ffc\_environ.vcx") SCAN FOR lSelected AND NOT EMPTY(cEmail) lcCmd = [mailto:] + ALLTRIM(curCustomers.cEmail) + [?subject=Proposal from ] + ALLTRIM(oUtils.cCompanyName) ; + [&body=Proposal attached&attachment="] + FULLPATH(toRpt.cOutputFile) + ".PDF" + ["] loShell.ShellExecute(lcCmd) ENDSCAN RELEASE loShell What happens currently: the email gets created, with the proper To: Subject, and Body....but the attachment doesn't come along for the ride. Tips/ideas?
