problem in sending email from VFP6

[sanjib]

dear friend

I made a form to send email from my application, in the send command button
i wrote the following code

o=createobject("outlook.application")
oitem=o.createitem(0)
oitem.subject="Proforma Invoice"
oitem.to= lctoadd
** To send copy to addresses..
oItem.cc = lcccadd
oitem.body="This mail was sent from invent"
** To attach a file
oitem.Attachments.Add(thisform.txtfile1.value)
** to attach one more file.. and you can repeat this.
oitem.Attachments.Add(thisform.txtfile2.value)
** to send it
oitem.send
** to clear up
o=.null.

but I am getting error

when i click on send it will ask for ( choose profile with window)
and asking for profile name.
if i select any of them

then it will give the following programm error
OLE|Dispatch exception code 4096 from microsoft path does not exist. make
sure thepath is correct.

Then if i say ignore it will send the mail of its own but the receipent get
it in his delete folder.

I am using outlook express 6 and win-xp.

kindly help me how to sort out the problem and how to choose the defaut
profile in my code.
thanks in advance

Outlook Express is NOT outlook.application.
In outlook; if you do not have a default profile defined; you need to either
define one or specify it in your code.

set up outlook
run it. if it's not defined, it'll walk you thru it.
that's OUTLOOK not outlook express.

You can not control OE thru OLE automation. You have to use MAPI
interface. Download MAPImail VCX from www.nbcsoftware.com , it is free
and simple to use.

OE does not have a COM model.
I suggest you move on and use SMTP directly -- there are several good tools for
it -- some free -- look on the UT for some solutions

We use West-Wind's IP stack for smtp email
