Attachments From Foxpro

Folks,

I had an easy time translating VBA synatx into Fox as far as obtaining an object references to a message attachment.

Oddly enough, nothing seems to work after this. I can access no properties or methods of the attachment object. Everything comes back with an OLE error 'Uknown name.' What am I doing wrong? Is there some gotcha in here I am unaware of?

The only thing I can get returned is Attachments.Count property, which gives 1, as expected.

ENVIRONMENT:
Win 2k Server
Office 2k Pro

WHAT WORKS SO FAR:
public olMAPI,om,ofld

olMAPI = createObject("Outlook.Application")
om = olmapi.GetNameSpace("MAPI")
ofld = om.Folders(1).Folders("temp")

? oFld.Items.Count
? oFld.Items(x).Attachments.Count
According to the documentation, any of the following should work:

oFld.Items(x).Attachments(1).WriteToFile("Temp.Txt")
oFld.Items(x).Attachments(1).Name

none of them do!

Any help?

TIA
