I have e-mail addresses already in a "text" field.
How can I set this up so that I can double click them and automatically open
Outlook and insert the address in the address line of the e-mail?
 
Code the Double-click event of the form control that shows
the field:

Application.FollowHyperlink "Mailto:" & [ControlName]

Thanks for the prompt response but it didn't seem to work...

Got the message "Compile Error: Invalid Outside procedure"
Any Ideas? I'm a novice at this please make it simple
I am presuming that where you have [controlname] that is the field name in
the related table?

Would appreciate your help again. Thanks in advance.
