Hi Marcia

>Since Outlook Express is not an automation server, if I were you, I would use CDo for Windows 2000 and later. This also has the advaqntage of not being specific to the e-mail client installed on the machine, so if they switch to Outlook, your code will continue to work.

I tried you sample code adapting the email addresses and attachment file pathname but I get the following error:
Program Error
Cancel
Suspend
Ignore
Help
OLE IDispatch exception code 0 from CDO.Message.1: The "SendUsing" configuration value is invalid.
..

Please advise.
