>Above code works great but is not what I want. I need for the user to select the "To" interactively rather than done programmatically. If I use the MAPI way, I can issue oObjectRef.Send(.T.) to bring up the interface but how do I do it with Outlook?

If there's another way, I'd sure like to know about it. But the only way I know would be to use the MAPI ActiveX controls to bring up the dialog for selection, then take the selected recipient from there and load it into the Outlook object property. Hopefully there's another way. :-)
