I'm trying to send a new email message to a value in a text field.

I created a command button and put this code in the click event:

oLink = CREATEOBJECT("hyperlink")
sgohere="mailto:"+inventory.inv_email
oLink.NavigateTo(sgohere)

This code works, however it brings up a browser window and the new email message page. Is there any way to customize the code so it won't bring up the browser window?

Thanks in advance.

Since Outlook Express is not a COM server (an application that can be automated from VFP or othe applications), no there isn't to many other ways, other than switching to Outlook.
