Hi,

I'm upgrading a Visual Basic 6 application to use the mailto: command with ShellExecute to replace the standard VB6 MAPI session and mail controls. My requirement is to basically send an email with attachments. I've found that the &Attachment string in the mailto: command does not attach the files as required. I've searched everywhere and tried numerous combinations of ways to specify the attachments with no result. The email - In Outlook 2010 - is created fine but with no attachments. My idea is to embed the attachments in the &body section of the mailto: command. The file types are arbitrary, everything from simple text through to pictures and audio files. Can someone please tell me how I might embed these attachments into the &body section of the mailto: command?

Thanks,

David.
