Hi Eric,

The MAPI class returns whatever is stored in the message property. You can try to get long file name using GetLongPathName Win API function.

DECLARE INTEGER GetLongPathName IN Kernel32 ;
  STRING lpszShortPath,  STRING @lpszLongPath, INTEGER @cchBuffer
lcBuffer = SPACE(256)
lnBuffLen = 256
? GetLongPathName(lcShortName, @lcBuffer, @lnBuffLen )
lcLongName  = LEFT(lcBuffer, AT(CHR(0), lcBuffer)-1)
