create e-mail with multiple attachments
hi,
i know it can't be that hard, and yet all my internet searches have come up empty for some reason.
here's what i want to do:
from within vb6, create an outlook express "new mail" (so the window actually pops up, i dont need vb6 to send the mail or anything), and then fill in recipient, subject, body etc... and attach one or more files.
how would i do this? thanx in advance.

Re: create e-mail with multiple attachments
Search our Forums because this has been asked several times already. 
Search for "ShellExecute + mailto:" but OE needs to be the default email client on the system.

Re: create e-mail with multiple attachments
another thing... how can you find out the language of outlook express? I guess it's the same as the system language but i can't find out how to get that either

Outlook Express does not expose any valid COM interfaces so you can not program against it other then SendKeys type code.

Re: create e-mail with multiple attachments
yeah but the problem is that the sendkeys are different in different languages... that sux. And I know for sure that the program will be used on at least english, spanish and french windows (and OE). So I need to find out the systemlanguage somehow.
