You can go to my website www.mainlinesoftware.com and find serveral PDF documents on integrating outlook and VFP...

>I successfully used some code from a UT thread that will send an Outlook email message from VFP:
>
>Recipient="xyz@abc.com"
>MailSubject="Test of Email From Visual FoxPro"
>MailMsg="This is a test of sending EMAIL FROM VFP"
>MailObj=CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
>NameSpace=MailObj.GetNameSpace("MAPI")
>MailItem=MailObj.CreateItem(0)
>MailItem.Recipients.Add(Recipient)
>MailItem.Subject=MailSubject
>MailItem.Body=MailMsg
>MailItem.Send
>NameSpace.Logoff
