Hi,
I've recently started using Blat and have a problem with the path of an
attachment I am trying to send. I'd appreciate any ideas as to what I'm
not seeing.
The file name is stored in taFiles[1] like this:
taFiles[1] = "D:\Documents\Football IQ Academy\Receipts\1025-Alain
Briggs.Pdf"
Which is a file that has just been created by my code.
Blat seems to choke on it.
The code that builds up the -attach parameter is this:
IF TYPE("taFiles", 1) = "A"
lcBlatParam = lcBlatParam + " -attach "
FOR lnCountAttachments = 1 TO ALEN(taFiles)
lcBlatParam = lcBlatParam +
GetShortPath(ALLTRIM(taFiles(lnCountAttachments))) + ","
ENDFOR
lcBlatParam = LEFT(lcBlatParam, LEN(lcBlatParam) - 1) && Remove
Extra Comma
ENDIF
in debugging the code, GetShortPath returns the exact same string for
the file. This then breaks blat because it can't handle the spaces in
the file path and name.
This is GetShortPath
****************************************
Function GetShortPath
****************************************
LPARAMETERS lcFileName
LOCAL lnReturn, lcBuffer
Declare Integer GetShortPathNameA In Win32API As GetShortPathName
String, String, Integer
lcBuffer = SPACE(255)
lnReturn= GetShortPathName(lcFileName, @lcBuffer, 255)
Clear Dlls "GetShortPathName"
Return (Left(lcBuffer, lnReturn))
ENDFUNC
