I'm having a problem with a very simple script to pick the email address field from each record in my database and create an email. The very small business I am working with uses AOL as the email client. The FM Pro v9 script works fine for the subject, text in the body, and attached file, but the email addresses are not passed. It doesn't matter if I pick the email address from the database or hardcode an address in the Send Mail command in the script. It doesn't matter if I put it in the TO, CC, or BCC field. Everything is populated in the email except the address.

Has anyone had this problem with the AOL v9 client? I did try this on a test machine with Outlook Express and it worked great. So, I don't think it is anything I'm doing wrong in the script.

Thanks.

I do not believe AOL meets the requirement of a MAPI-compliant email client.

If you upgrade to FM10, you can use the built-in SMTP functionality and not rely on an email client.

Thanks - I appreciate your reply. I suspected AOL wasn't an industry standard email client, but was hoping someone had found a workaround. I think we will either have to change to a different email client or upgrade to FM10.

Thanks again.
