Help sending Lotus Notes mail through VBA - one last piece!
 

Below is my macro (which works very well) to copy part of an Excel
worksheet, open up a Lotus Notes memo, paste it and send it with
specific subject, body, recipient, etc.

I have two questions:

1) The message isn't appearing in my send box. Any idea on how to
acheive this?

2) I'd like to look at the message and send it manually in Lotus Notes.
Is this possible?

Thanks in advance.
