You can find info by searching around the delphi.about.com site, but here's
something to get you started:
procedure TForm1.btnEmailClick(Sender: TObject);
var
em_subject, em_body, em_mail: string; //em_mail is the whole mail message;
em_subject & em_body are
//the subject
line and message body
begin
em_subject := 'Message Subject Line Here';
em_body := 'Text of e-mail message goes here';
em_mail := 'mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]' + em_subject + '&body=' +
em_body;
//convert Delphi's carriage returns to a version email programs like
Outlook Express understand:
em_mail:=StringReplace(em_mail,#13#10,'%0D%0A',[rfReplaceAll]);
ShellExecute(Handle, 'open', PChar(em_mail), nil, nil, SW_SHOWNORMAL);
end;
Hope this helps. -- Al C.
