Hello Colin

This is an excellent oppotunity for us to help each other out:)

I am right at the beggining of this project so I have not hit the problem you describe yet. I must deal with it before I go any further though because its pretty fundemental.

The help file says that GetAttachmentFile() will return the full path to the attachment but I am not sure how that works if our attachments are stored in MS Exchange.

The utility I am writing also has to have FTP capabilties as one of its fall back transfer methods, but I am writing the Email transfer method first.

I am working on this problem now.

My direct line work phone number is 01273 482243.

Please feel free to call me anytime you like and I will describe my app in more detail. If we share code there will be big time saving benefits for both of us.
