Private Declare Function ShellExecute Lib "shell32.dll" Alias "ShellExecuteA" (ByVal hwnd As Long, ByVal lpOperation As String, ByVal lpFile As String, ByVal lpParameters As String, ByVal lpDirectory As String, ByVal nShowCmd As Long) As Long
Const SW_SHOWNORMAL = 1
Private Sub Form_Load()
    'KPD-Team 1998
    'URL: [url]http://www.allapi.net/[/url]
    'E-Mail: [email][email protected][/email]
    'Send an E-Mail to the KPD-Team
    ShellExecute Me.hwnd, vbNullString, "mailto:[email protected]", vbNullString, "C:\", SW_SHOWNORMAL
End Sub

To populate the 'Subject' Line, change the ShellExecute statement to:

ShellExecute Me.hwnd, vbNullString, "mailto:[email protected]?subject=Support",  _
    vbNullString, "C:\", SW_SHOWNORMAL

If you want to populate the body with some text:

ShellExecute Me.hwnd, vbNullString, "mailto:[email protected]?subject=Support&body=Please help quickly",  _
    vbNullString, "C:\", SW_SHOWNORMAL
