I have several VFP6 applications that run smoothly in Win 98 - XP environments. They also appear to work (so far) in Vista. However, one element I am unable to test in Vista is the email interface capability where VFP6 uses createobject to launch Outlook for mail server. Is anyone using this successfully in a Vista environment?

Thanks in advance.
 
I have outlook email working from 2000 xp and 2003 with office 2003, will be testing vista soon. Ill report back.

A good resource for outlook is Sue @ outlookcode.com
Its mostly vb and vba, but what works for them usually converts for us.

Thanks for the reply, white605. My research so far indicates that the application integrity level and the office application integrity level being different (protected mode vs. administrator) is causing people grief. I have yet to find any reasonable workaround on the net. I will continue to post about this as I find more information.
