Hello again.

I want to explain myself.

The MapiMail class from samples is not suitable for me, because (altough it launch the default e-mail client -- in my case, Outlook Express), it needs to register two .OCX files.

If customer's operating system needs to be wiped and reinstalled from scratch, my application won't run anymore, because the ActiveX controls are gone. Also, I don't want to reinstall the application, because the setup wizard will overwrite database, if application is reinstalled in the same directory. I dont't even think about the users reinstalling the application (brrrr!)

In this case, in my opinion, is better to try to send mail with CREATEOBJECT(), but I don't know how to search all classes in Registry.

For example (please smack me in the head if I'm wrong), in Remote Automation Connection Manager I've found the entry: InternetExplorer.Application, and in
VFP I can launch CREATEOBJECT("InternetExplorer.Application"), wich gives me the following conclusion: If an application is listed in Remote Automation Manager, it can be launched remotelly. Is this correct?

In the other hand, there is no entry referring at Outlook Express, and I think this must be launched with Internet Explorer, somehow.

Once again, if somebody can help me, I will greatly appreciate.

Thanks
