Hello,
I am trying to create a link in a macro object that will open up an email with the subject already filled in with the name of the object. The problem I'm having is that the subject of the email is always the name of the macro instead of the object that is calling the macro. Is there a way to get the Name_of_macro request to use the object calling the macro instead?
thanks

Have you tried ... n = REQUEST ("Name_of_main", "", main_name)
