Hi Ronald -

If the client machine has the Windows Messaging system installed, and if
you're using VFP, you can do this via OLE Automation. You basically create
an object reference to a MAPI session and handle logging in, creating a new
message and sending it all from VFP. I don't know the syntax off the top of
my head, but I'm sure you can find lots of information if you start at
http://www.microsoft.com/outlook. From there, choose the "Development"
option and surf around. You should find a reference to MAPI's exposed
properties and methods.

If you're not using VFP, you might check out some back issues of FoxPro
Advisor. A few issues from the earlier part of this year had articles on
sending e-mail from within Fox apps of various versions.
