email / hyperlink field / outlook express taking over

B

Bernard Verdam

Hello
I have a form that includes an email address.

first of all i would like to avoid having to type "mailto:" in front of the
email address, but if i don't, the program tries to open the website. if i
have (e-mail address removed), it goes to the yahoo website, instead of opening
an email form. how do i fix that?

ok, so i can live with mailto. however, when i click on the email link,
outlook express opens up. i don't have any problems with o.e., but i would
prefer to use outlook. how do i set the email field to call up outlook
instead of outlook express?


thanks for the help.

Hi
I dont know the bit about Mail to: but i guess why your macro opens OE is
because you must have set it as default email client, you should change
Outlook as default set then it should be fine
