Thanks for the previous Dmitry. All early versions of Outlook are now
holding eMail correctly.

I tested the code today on Outlook 2007 and it will not display the
attachment. This time I suspect a switch in Outlook preventing some
behaviour. I have tried turning off Anti-Virus and Firewall but no change.

Is there anything different that must be done for attachments to be parsed
to Outlook 2007?

TIA

Peter

What is your latest code?

Hi Dnitry,

SafeItem :=
CreateOLEObject('Redemption.SafeMailItem'); // 'Create an instance of
Redemption.SafeMailItem
oItem := MSOutLook.CreateItem(olMailItem);
SafeItem.Item := oItem; // 'set Item property
SafeItem.Item := oItem;
MyRecipient := SafeItem.Recipients.Add(ConnectNumber);
MyRecipient.Type := olTO;
SafeItem.Subject := edHeading.Text;
MyAttachments := oItem.Attachments
MyAttachments.Add(slAttachmentFiles[i],olByValue);
oItem.Body := reParagraphs.Text;
oItem.Display(True);

I tried with Trust Center -
Macro Security - No security check for Macros(not recommended) checked and
it worked.
Went back to
Warnings for signed macros; all unsigned macros ar disabled and it failed
Went back to
Macro Security - No security check for Macros(not recommended) checked and
it failed and I heve not been able to repeat the successful attachment

Regards

Peter.

Looks perfectly fine to me.
When exactly does your code run? Do the atatchment display if you select a
different email and then open the old one?

Hi Dmitry,

I can't get the any attachments to display or send with Outlook 2007.

I have tried on our development platform with Vista Outlook 2007 and at a
client site with XP and Outlook 2007

Other versions of Outlook work just fine with my code and with and without
Redemption.

Are you saying that you can attach an attachment to Outlook 2007?

Regards

Peter

Are you sure you pass a fully qualified path to Attachments.Add?

Yes, the path is fully qualified and it is on a local machine

Ok So now I am confused. Attachments are now working

I have not altered the code and I do not know what changes I have made in
Outlook as I tried many but I thought that I had reset them to the defaults.

Now however Outlook will not launch if it is already open on the desktop,
EoleSysError 'server execution failed'
at
MSOutlook := CreateOLEObject(Outlook.Application)

Do you have any AV apps running?
If this from a regular exe or service/COM+/etc?

I've turned off all AV and windows firewall, rebooted and no change.

It is a regular .exe calling

MSOutlook := CreateOLEObject(Outlook.Application)

I've now checked at the client site and I cannot get attachments to stick
with Outlook 2007 and Win XP
