Using DoCmd.SendObject - Show email before it is sent.

I have built code in my DB to send emails to selected locations (2) with an attachment. This works and the email is sent without showing the email page. I know the email screen will show if I do not have a To: email address in the code. But I do have the Address/s in the code. Now my users want the email to show before it is sent. Is there a way to make this happen using the DoCmd.SendObject in VBA?

And I also know about using the Outlook commands as an alternative but that requires saving the attachment outside of access. We are working with remote servers and the time require to store the attachment may be prohibitive to my users. That is why I am using the DoCmd.SentObject approach.

Thanks,

"Now my users want the email to show before it is sent" - would they be happy to be CC'ed on that e-mail instead?
