1955.0. "Wordperfect 7.0/TLV2.7 Adding Attachments" by OASS::LUCAS_A () Fri Jan 24 1997 09:47

    We're experiencing a problem after upgrading to TL V2.7 and WordPerfect
    V7.  Under TL V2.5 and WordPerfect V6.1 we used to be able to select
    a DOS document for editing, then hit the FILE/SEND button and TeamLinks
    would initialize and display the Create Message window with the
    DOS file shown as an attachment.  (Note that WordPerfect was
    integrated with TeamLinks.)
                                 
    A user who has upgraded to TL V2.7 and WordPerfect V7 now tries
    to perform the same operation AS TL2.5/WP6.1 and the Create Message 
    window appears but WITHOUT any attachment.  The user must then 
    go through the Add Attachment operation and select the current 
    file as an attachment.
    
    We've tried loading WordPerfect's ODMA patches for V7 but it doesn't
    solve the problem.  We've also tried renaming ODMA*.DLL files to
    logically delete them and this also has no effect.
    
    Is there a way to fix this problem?  User complains that it defeats
    the purpose of the SEND option.
    
    I cannot test this in the support center because we do not have a copy
    of WordPerfect V7.0.  If anyone has WP7.0 and TLV2.7 please try
    the steps as customer has stated and post your results.
    
    Thanks,
    AL

	I have Corel WP 7. The scenario that you described works for me. It sends using the TL Mail DDE. This is built into the app, carried over from the WP 6.0/6.1 integration. It doesn't use Simple MAPI if it finds TL on the system. I don't believe ODMA comes into play at all in regards to WP's mail command. I have version 7.0.1.9 of Corel WordPerfect 7. I don't think it's the latest, but it isn't the oldest either. What version does your customer have? They can get the exact version info from the WP About command. Bob
