URL:MailTo Protocol

[Lois J. Greene-Hernandez]

I am having a problem with mailto's. I found something on
the Microsoft knowledge base that helped a bit but was not
quite enough. It said the following:

On the Start menu, point to All Programs or Programs,
point to Accessories, and then click Windows Explorer

For Windows 98:
On the Tools menu, click Folder Options.
On the File Types tab, click URL:MailTo Protocol, and then
click Edit.
Under Actions, click Open, and then click Edit.
Under Application used to perform action, type the
following:
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office10\OUTLOOK.EXE" -
c IPM.Note /m "%1"

Click OK, and then click OK again.

The problem is that it does not give any information about
DDE. Should I use DDE or do I leave it completely blank.
There is no information about this and while I am no
longer getting a PROGRAM.EXE not found, it still does not
work.

Mine has the Use DDE box checked and it shows OUTLOOK in the Application box
and System in the Topic box. The other two boxes are blank. See if that
works.
