Ben, This is just a stab - I don't have experience with R:Mail attachments. I'm wondering if your vatstring variable should have some additional quotes so that R:Mail reads X-Attachments: 'filename, filename' or 'filename', 'filename'??? I'm not sure if R:Mail needs the quotes, but I'm pretty sure LAUNCH requires quotes around filenames. Trace through to see the values of your variables as you go... Dawn

Does anyone have much experience with R:Mail attachments? Ben -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Ben Fogt Sent: Wednesday, February 09, 2005 2:03 PM To: RBG7-L Mailing List Subject: [RBG7-L] - R:Mail Attachments I've been working on automating some notifications in our systems. The first was fairly easy and contained an attachment. I ran into a problem but figured out that I needed a (char(13)) at the end of the line. Now, I'm working on another that has two files attached. I'm testing it with the variables assigned to static files that are in the same directory. Here are the different results: 1) No attachments. Priority and Format lines appear in the text of the email. 2) No attachments. Priority and Format are properly encoded. When I set the attachment to only include one file, I get: 1) Attachment encoded. Priority and Format lines properly encoded. 2) No attachment. Priority and Format lines in the text of the message. 3) No attachment. Priority and Format are properly encoded. These results only vary after I delete the returns and spaces between lines and add them back in. There doesn't look like there is a change in the msg file, though. Can anyone explain the best way to look at the formatting of the msg file to know the difference between the returns mention in the R:Mail help? This is just aggravating. Thanks, Ben The result of the message below was no attachments and the Priority and Format lines were in the text of the email. Here's the MSG file text: --> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] From: "ICT Merchant Services" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: ICT Collect-A-Check Payment Report CC: BCC:[EMAIL PROTECTED] X-Attachments: CF010202.LOG,PD010202.DAT Format:T Priority: 2 Attention : Pauline Good Morning, Pauline. Attached are two files. PDmmddyy.dat contains the actual payment data. CFmmddyy.log contains the file stats. Thanks, ICT Merchant Services <-- Here's the Resulting email: --> From: ICT Merchant Services [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, February 09, 2005 1:40 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: ICT Collect-A-Check Payment Report Format:T Priority: 2 Attention : Pauline Good Morning, Pauline.
