I'm starting the default email client and passing ?subject= and &body=.

Is it possible to also pass an attachment?

I've Googled but can't find an answer :(

Thanks,

More searching revealed this example.

This example requires Outlook Express to be your default e-mail program.

I'm now assuming there is no keyword such as "atttachment=" to make this
happen.

Since I can't depend on OE being the default e-mail program, this isn't
a very workable solution.

Is sendkeys the only way to accomplish this?

Can someone provide an example that works for any e-mail program?

Thanks,

  That's a hokey way to go about it. You might try
looking into CDO if you want it simple. CDO is fairly
easy to use, but I think it's only available on 2000/XP.
(I use Win98, which has none of the CDO stuff, so I
have a hard time remembering exactly what's supported
on which systems.)

   If you just do a search for CDO you should find what
you want.
