before i go through and post my code, (i have to strip alot out)

i am able to access the attachments array ok
I can set the to and subject properties programmatically, by doinng
ObjMailitem.to = ", i can slo set the subject too

But, when i click my custom control and check objmailitem.to, it is
nothing, empty!

i added the following ot control and clicked it

objmailitem.to = "
objmailitem.subject = "tester"

The fields int he email are updated with this information, then when i
click my send custom control and check the fields, these values are
displayed, even if i add extra info to the fields.

Very wierd any clues? if not, i will post my code. this is only
apparent when using word as editor, all works fine when using
outlook.

cheers
