Paul:
(Guess what sort of server we have here at work, huh?)
It's Outlook 2001. I did happen to get this to almost work, but the values
don't seem to be appearing in the mail message:
on send_email_message_OE(targetAddress, targetName, subjectLine, theSender,
messageText, fileAttachment)
tell application "Microsoft Outlook"
activate
set theDoc to {fileAttachment} as list
set messageContent to messageText as
string
set emailsubject to subjectLine as string
set theRecipient to
{targetAddress} as list
set carbonCopyRecipients to {""} as list
set
blindcarbonCopyRecipients to {""} as list
set showMe to true
--
CreateMail {Subject:subject, theContent, theDoc, theRecipient,
ccRecipients, |display|}
CreateMail {|subject|:emailsubject,
|body|:messageContent,
|attachments|:theDoc, |recipients|:theRecipient,
|cc_recipients|:carbonCopyRecipients,
|bcc_recipients|:blindcarbonCopyRecipients, |showMe|:false}
end tell
end send_email_message_OE
send_email_message_OE("email@hidden", "me", "Hi
There",
"email@hidden", ,
"Starting OE Support for Export wizard", "OS X:Norton
AntiVirus Installer
Log")
What's with the pipes after you check syntax in the editor?

You checked the wrong dictionary. That paltry dictionary which has nothing
