Hi Walter,

I tried sys(2333,0) in the application object's SendEmail() method, and the method appeared not to explode with a GPF when the SET STEP ON code was enabled (although it didn't make the note it was supposed to make). When I turned off the break though, it GPFd again - Timing problem perhaps?

New method code:

* disable vtable binding to see if that avoids GPFs
local lcSYS2333
lcSYS2333 = sys(2333,2)
sys(2333, 0)

with this

  local loMessage
  
  loMessage = .oOutlook.createitem(olMailItem)
  
  loMessage.UserProperties.Add('ToContactID', olNumber)
  loMessage.UserProperties.Add('FromRep', olText)
  loMessage.UserProperties('ToContactID') = this.GetCurrentContact()
  loMessage.UserProperties('FromRep') = this.cInitials

  loMessage.Recipients.Add(contactview.email)
  loMessage.Recipients.ResolveAll()
  loMessage.Display(.f.)

endwith

sys(2333, int(val(lcSYS2333)))

Cheers,

Andrew
