Corrupt attachments with VBA

B

B. Bois

Hi,

I've written a Visual Basic 6 program that creates an Excel
spreadsheet and emails via Outlook 2000. The file is created and
saved correctly and mails correctly on my development machine.

I moved the application to the production machine and it creates and
saves the file correctly but the attachment in the email it sends is
corrupt. It has the name of the .XLS file but is actually an URL
pointing to C:\Windows\System32. When I go to the production machine
and manually create the email, it arrives perfectly.

I've compared the Option dialogs in Outlook on both machines and their
identical. I've also verified that the .DLLs and .OCXs the program
uses are the same. What else can I look at to find something
different between the two machines.

Thanks,
Bill
