Open external mail client with RTC

Hi,
I want to open an external mail client (e.g. Outlook) in NAV.
In the CC I use the automaition WSHShell and everything works fine.
For the RTC I tried to use the DotNet Sys.Diagnostic.Process, but nothing happens...
Has anyone an idea?
Here's my code:
Automation: com_WSHShell - 'Windows Script Host Object Model'.WshShell
DotNet: dtn_process - 'System, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089'.System.Diagnostics.Process

You may want to look into Codeunit 397 and how it is used in the System. That's usually the way we handle things like this from NAV.
On another note: Are you sure your .NET Variables are set to run on the client?Austrian NAV/BC Dev5
