Hi Matt

Have you tried the mailto command via shellexecute

here is some code that does open up lotus notes, or the users default browser

DECLARE INTEGER ShellExecute IN "Shell32.dll" ;
INTEGER hwnd, ;
STRING lpVerb, ;
STRING lpFile, ;
STRING lpParameters, ;
STRING lpDirectory, ;
LONG nShowCmd


acti wind trace
susp
lnRturnvalue=ShellExecute(0,"open","mailto:", " ", "", 3)


IF lnRturnvalue < 32
MESSAGEBOX("Can not open telnet")
RETURN
ENDIF


there are a couple if parameters that you can add to this command, but I am not sure what they are.

if you have a look in

it may give you some ideas

Talk to you later
