Hi Chip,


Thank you very much. It did work. The attachment was sent and I was able to
open it. Wonderful!!


I also learnt from the documentation that the image can become part of the
email message. Could you provide an example for this.


I have run an example of what I am doing and included you as a recipient
for your information.


Thank you.


Ima.
