Hi With Outlook 2013 installed on windows 64bit, pressing the mail button in report preview don't open the default e mail client (Outlook 2013) No errors was displayed Outlook 2013 is the default eMail client
1. The security settings for both applications need to be the same. If you are running Delphi in administrator mode and Outlook without, you will run into issues.
ReportBuilder uses MAPI to communicate with Outlook (or any other MAPI enabled email client). MAPI requires that the "bitness" of the application match the "bitness" of Oulook. For instance, if you are using 64 bit Outlook, you will need to access it from a 64 bit application.
Your options are to either build your Delphi application with the 64 bit platform or install the 32 bit version of Outlook.
