Hi all,

I'm revamping and old application and adding some new capacities to it, now I'm working on email. Not all of our users have Outlook, in consequence I'm using EasyMail OCX and it works very well.
As EasyMail is able of sending RTF and HTML messages, I started and finished on Friday a form to allow my users composing RTF messages (I used some code from Solution.app), add attachments, etc.. Everything was great until testing and notice that Outlook does not "recognize" the RTF output from the Rich Text Control. There is no errors in my code, Words renders the OCX's RTF output very well. It is Outlook than apparently has its own "standard".

Have somebody here encountered and solved this problem? Or, do you know where to find what is
different betw the RTF OCX output and the RTF Outlook recognizes? I don't want to waste one day of work. :)

Well, as RTF is not really standard, time to work in a HTML composer form, I found a DHTML Editing OCX (DHTMLEd.ocx) SDK, it contains a nice form in VB that looks easy to translate to VFP and I'm going to start doing it right now.
Has somebody worked with DHTMLEd.ocx before? Any input is welcome.

TIA,

Max

Look, so the world knows it, so be known:
I'm happy...
