Very Computer

Hi,

I'm using VB5 and I want to be able to prepare an eMail message, so that
the user will only have to press the Send button.

For now I can start the default eMail program with a new empty message
and my eMail address already there with the following code:

----------------------------
Private Declare Function ShellExecute Lib "Shell32.DLL" Alias
"ShellExecuteA" (ByVal hWnd As Long, ByVal lpOperation As String, ByVal
lpFile As String, ByVal lpParameters As String, ByVal lpDirectory As
String, ByVal nShowCmd As Long) As Long

vbNullString, vbNullString, vbNormalFocus)
----------------------------

But I want to add a title, a body text and possibly an attach file to
this message.  This have to work with Netscape and Explorer.  Is it
possible and how can I do that?

Thanks a lot for your answers.

Jack

Why not try automating outlook, and just use that to do your e-mail.
If it sounds any good then this tutorial will get you started:

Excuse the garbled mess at the bottom, it is code...

"?subject=Hello&body=testing" is what you need (less the double quotes)

I tried attachment, attach and file for the last one but couldn't get
the file in :(

2 out of 3 isn't bad tho
