Send Object w/Outlook

[Jamie Flynn]

I have my send object set up to send a report via outlook. It works fine, until I use the startup feature to not show the database window. It will not work and provides a message that reads....
"The command of action "Output To" isn't available now.
*You may be in a read-only database or an unconverted database from an earlier version.
*The type of object the action applies to isn't currently selected or isn't in the active view.
Use only those commands and macros actions that are currently available for this database."

Is there any way to use the send object macro with the database window not in the background?
Thanks-
Jamie

Jamie,

If I understand you correctly, I *think* it will work if you use an
OpenReport action to preview the report, and if necessary also a
SelectObject action to set the focus to the report preview, prior to the
SendObject action.
