So maybe make the loMsg object visible and don’t invoke the Send() method?

file attachments?

Hi John,

Thanks for your code below.  It's pretty much exactly what I use for my bug 
reporting where the app automatically sends an email. However, in this case, 
the customer WANTS to see it in Outlook and review it themselves before 
pressing the Send button to email it. (Paranoia?)

Thanks though.
