It seems to be Javascript based, could imply some machines may not allow it to run due to security constraints.
May I ask why you do not want to consider using ftp techniques using Microsoft Internet Control or C$socket?

Didn't look into C$SOCKET yet.
The purpose of this all is the following :
Alot of our clients have difficulties sending email, don't ask me why. Anyway, some times we request a Vision-file to be sent to us so in the future, customers will have the ability to send these files with the routine you made available via MSMAPI32.OCX.
If the files are bigger than 2Mb, our software opens Internet Explorer to send the files via http://www.yousendit.com, so I thought it would maybe possible to fill in the requiered fields in advance.
Another question since we're at it : I think it must be possible to close our subroutine when the files are being sent, but I don't manage to do so. Can you suggest me how to handle threads in this case or send me a small exemple ?

Good idea. I also understand the issue with big files because many email accounts has restrictions to the size of attachments.
I really think you should use ftp for this. If you look through our newsletters, one of them discusses using C$SOCKET to ftp files, with this, your deparment should just set up a ftp server and your applications then communicates directly to this, avoiding all dependency.

I am not sure what you mean by this, do you want to cancel a thread before it is finished?

In fact, I want to be able to run the main program with all sub-programs, while the mail is being sent in another thread or another independent program.

I see, anything involving api (which sockets are about) will not let you do that.
If you use the Microsoft Internet Control (which is one of the controls on the ACUCOBOL-GT CD) to ftp a file it would be possible with background processing. Demands Windows though...
