I want to create a mail with attachment in Outlook and display it before sending it, but I think I have tried almost every sample I have found on the net without any luck.
I could use Indy, but I would very much like to use Outlook to be sure that the mail is proper because it is for business use.
Any input for a function that takes Address, subject, message and attachment as parameters and then displays the message in Outlook before sending it.
See MailItem.Display Method.
uses
comobj;
..
procedure DisplayMail(Address, Subject, Body: string; Attachment: TFileName);
var
Outlook: OleVariant;
Mail: Variant;
const
olMailItem = $00000000;
begin
try
Outlook := GetActiveOleObject('Outlook.Application');
except
Outlook := CreateOleObject('Outlook.Application');
end;
Mail := Outlook.CreateItem(olMailItem);
Mail.To := Address;
Mail.Subject := Subject;
Mail.Body := Body;
if Attachment <> '' then
Mail.Attachments.Add(Attachment);
Mail.Display;
end;
procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);
begin
DisplayMail('mailaddress', 'subject', 'message', 'attachmentfile');
end;
