Hi,

Any suggestions/links would be greatly appreciated

sorry, I should have been more clear, I am looking for a control/class that I can include in my application that will allow me to display MSG files within my app.

Ideally an ActiveX control that I could add to my existing app, im sure sucha thing exists, im just not having any luck finding it :dunno:
