Send E-Mail From VB 4

[rtshort]

I've been Googleing this for about 3 hours now. The only thing I can find is how to send the actual e-mail from vb exclusively using CDONTS or the MAPI Control.

I'm really looking for a way to actually open Outlook Express with all of the information transfered from the VB Program to the e-mail and let the user select the address from their address book.

I know I can use the Shell to open Outlook Express, but how do I get the information into the e-mail.

Any clues or can it even be done?

Just my $.02.

Dear HughLerwill

In your example code there is references to an apparent variable "CurDir" and apparent functions called ChDrive and ChDir. Are all of these common to VB 6 applications?

Yes.

All three are vb keywords and are documented in vb help and via
