>>>I am using Outlook from my VFP6 program to send an email. I default the recipient, etc. and then show the Outlook form for the user to make changes and send the email. When the user sends, I want to retrieve the message text and use it in my VFP program. How can I get the text of the message that the user sent?

>>If oMessage is your object, the text should be in oMessage.body; if it's a HTML message, then oMessage.HTMLBody. However, I have used this on old messages only (working on archiving into .dbf, Outlook seems to have no track of related messages). These properties exist for a outlook.MailItem object.

It's probably already moved to Sent folder, so you'd need to get it from there. It should be something like

oFolder=oOutlook.session.folders("Sent")
oLastMessage=oFolder.messages(oFolder.oFolder.messages.count)

but I'm not sure how does Outlook store the most recent message into the collection - as first, last or what. I also don't know if folder name is accepted as a parameter in the first line, or it needs a constant, which I actually don't have, but can be obtained from Outlook's object browser.
