Hi Borislav

I am now nearer the problem although I still dont understand it.

Before I get error I did a STRTOFILE(lcbodytext,c:\neil.txt,0) and contained within this file is exactly what I want.

When I resume I get an error message:

'Compiled code for this line is too long'

When I suspend the problem lies in this block of code:

* Convert body text field to data (if it is a field)
IF TYPE(lcBodyText)='M'
	lcTemp=""
	FOR lnLoop=1 TO MEMLINES(&lcBodyText.)
		lcTemp=lcTemp+MLINE(&lcBodyText.,lnLoop)
		lcTemp=lcTemp+CHR(13)
	ENDFOR
	lcBodyText=lcTemp
ENDIF

This block of code is used in the Sendmail program used on the Outlook Class for sending mail.
