    First priority as I see it. Copy application contents to a new wizard
    generated "app shell" making sure all OLE client/server stuff is activated.
    I'm convinced this will be a "Good Thing" for us. It's not defendable from
    a KISS perspective but, I'm sure OLE functionality (Think HTML directly
    embedded in an email!) will be good for us.

    It'gonna take some extra work but it will be well worth it. To a certain
    degree it's the same with COM, but that quickly gets too imvolved...

    I'll then make sure everything is up-to-date. Visual Studio update etc.

    Make sure program runs in debug and release mose and then put it out
    there....

    Regards,
    Søren

        And see where I'm at. I already have problems even before the program
        compiles because some of this OLE stuff is fairly new to me....

          Give me a couple of days though. The splashscreen is nearly there. I heard
          a need for setting the size of toolbars through options. And then there's

            As it is, The Simple MAPI Client just takes the document and makes it an
            attachment to a new email.

            Although our aim is to look more or less like that client, it would be nice
            with finer control. Make our TO it's TO, our FROM it's FROM, our SUBJECT
            it's SUBJECT and so forth with attachments and e-mail body. I'm pretty sure
            OLE can do this. Like a kind of research tour de force into OLE.

            I'm aware this is not high priority at the moment so I wont waste time on
            that right now. But I'd like to be able to come back to this subject. Hence
            the links here.

            Regards.

              OK. On my way home. Hope the update has finished and, that everything now
              works. I have tasted blood now, metaphorically spoken of course, and I'm
              coiled up like a spring. Ready to release the stored up energy! 😀

                Hope shattered. I'd done a registry cleanup in the hope it'd fix the
                problem. No luck.

                My problem is related to the name under which I wish to register the app.

                The fact that I'm missing "mfc140ud.dll" (Even though it's all over my
                computer, including windows/system32 and I've tried to copy it directly
                into the project - I need to wipe my computer completely but the timing
                sucks. Once I've uploaded it I can do that.)

                I have 2 choices:

                1.) Upload what I have, without OLE.

                2.) Fix The name bug the hard way. Without access to debug info. Or rather,
                I should have enough to see what the problem is, and fix it.

                I'm gonna go with number 2 because once we've started pouring functionality
                into it, it'll be a bitch (pardon my French) to enable it (OLE). I would
                basically have to re-create the entire program and then copy everything
                manually into the new NEW program.

                So give me a day or two to do this, and THEN I'll upload it.

                Regards and sorry for further delay. I'm aware everyone's itching to make
                their mark on it [sarcasm].

                  For those with a technical inclination the assertion that fires is in
                  OLEREG.CPP line 362, if my memory serves me correct. (I'm not home right
                  now.)

                  No need for the sarcasm. People are itching to make their mark on it...
                  but it has to be compilable first. Otherwise, the Reddit people will rip
                  me to shreds. Once it compiles and is usable, we'll have a couple more

                    Oh it compiles alright. And works. I may bow my head and upload the non-OLE
                    version just to give people something to play with and see and feel. I'll
                    retain my right to recreate the application from scratch though. To get OLE
                    in there. Embedding HTML directly in an e-mail is a feature without which
                    we wont be taken seriosly.

                    So I'll finish the splash screen and maybe mirror Eudora's menu.

                    Then I'll upload it. And remember, we might experience some child
                    sicknesses, because the program comes from a faulty installation.

                    Regards,
