Eric,
Have you tried displaying the Outlook.Mailitem after you have created it &
doing your 1/2 of the process?
Something like:
' Using the Outlook 2003 PIA
Imports Outlook = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook
Dim appOutlook As New Outlook.Application
Dim item As Outlook.MailItem =
appOutlook.CreateItem(Outlook.OlITemType.olMailIte m)
item.Subject = "Please finish this message!"
item.Body = "This space needs something meaningful!"
item.Display()
Hope this helps
Jay
