Send Event Limit

[Kiwi]

I am using Send Event to start a VBscript that does a mass e-mail. The script step is using the following parameter:

Quote("C:Documents and SettingsAdministratorDesktopmail.vbs") & " " & Quote( $v )

It all worked ok until $v became > 1987 characters. This causes the script to ignore the Send Event and get(lasterror) returns 3.

I cannot find any documentation that mentions a limit of chars in Send Event so if anybody can figure out a workaround for it I would be greatly appreciative!

cheers

PS - can't use Filemakers built in email script step as this will cause MS Outlook to prompt for every email.
