I am trying to let a user click on an email address displayed in a Foxpro textbox, and have a new mail message open in the users default email.

I have tried two methods so far. First I used the hyperlink object and called NavigateTo with "mailto:someemailaddress" as the cTarget.

This almost works. It opens internet exloperer, then opens the new mail message.

I tried using the Run command, but it doesn't seem to recognize "Mailto:".

I also tried run /N explorer mailto:someemail and it opens internet explorer and the new email message.

There must be a way to get the new email message without opening internet explorer.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Tim Trostle
