Automatically export HTML to MAPI

I have created a report that I can successfully export to HTML and use the "Send by MAPI" feature to email the report with R&R Designer (version 10.0). But now I want to create a runtime shortcut that I can put in my Startup folder so that everytime I boot my computer, it will run this report and export it to HTML and email it to the same address list. How do I accomplish this? I cannot find a command line switch to make it do the export/e-mail process without user interaction. It wants to print it instead.____Beyond that, is there a way to schedule this report rather than have it run at boot up?____And finally, is there any way to email the HTML report as the body of the email rather than as an attachment?____Thanks!____David Brown__Management Technology Services, Inc.

At the request of many users, the latest Version 10 release allows reports containing saved Mail Option settings to be automatically run and sent to email recipients without needing to open the Report Designer and manually select Send via MAPI checkbox. This functionality is implemented using runtime executable but requires an installed copy of the Report Designer to be present. The command line to output a report to MAPI is:__For Xbase__RRWRUN.EXE /M<reportname>__For SQL__RSWRUN.EXE /M<reportname>______If you mail client defaults to HTML as the default mail format, then the exported HTML should appear as the message body rather than an attachment.____Kathleen__R&R Support
