The solution to this might be so simple that I didn't think about it, but after researching everywhere on this site and google and not finding the answer, I finally decided to post my question.

Here is what I am trying to do. I have a form where I let the user enter an email address and attach a file and on clicking a "Send" button, I want to send out an email using Lotus Notes. Now, I have the "sending an email from Lotus Notes" part figured out. What I can't figure out is how to extract the directory path of the attached file, so I can attach it to the email. I am doing all this using JScript code:

function CTRL5_5::OnClick(eventObj)
{

   var strTo = XDocument.DOM.selectSingleNode("/my:myFields/my:field1").text;
   var strCC ="";

    var strBCC = "";
   //var strCC = XDocument.DOM.selectSingleNode("/my:myFields/my:PDRAS_ID").text;
   var strSubject = "PV Info";
   var emailmessage = XDocument.DOM.selectSingleNode("/my:myFields/my:field2").text;
   if(strTo != "")
   {
   sendNotesMail(strTo, strCC, strBCC, strSubject, emailmessage);
   }

   //Application.ActiveWindow.Close(true);*/

}

function sendNotesMail(strTo, strCC, strBCC, strSubject, emailmessage)
{
    var domSession;
   domSession = new ActiveXObject("Lotus.NotesSession");
   var domNotesDatabaseMailFile;
   var domNotesDocumentMemo;
   var domNotesRichTextItemBody;
   domSession.Initialize();
   dbdir = domSession.getDbDirectory("");
   domNotesDatabaseMailFile = dbdir.openMailDatabase();
   domNotesDocumentMemo = domNotesDatabaseMailFile.createDocument();
   domNotesDocumentMemo.appendItemValue("Form", "Memo");
   domNotesDocumentMemo.appendItemValue("From", domSession.CommonUserName);
   domNotesDocumentMemo.appendItemValue("SendTo", strTo);
   domNotesDocumentMemo.appendItemValue("CopyTo", strCC);
   domNotesDocumentMemo.appendItemValue("BlindCopyTo", strBCC);
   domNotesDocumentMemo.appendItemValue("Subject", strSubject);
   domNotesRichTextItemBody = domNotesDocumentMemo.createRichTextItem("Body");

   domNotesRichTextItemBody.appendText(emailmessage);
   domNotesRichTextItemBody.EmbedObject(1454, "", NEED FILE ATTACHMENT PATH HERE);

   domNotesDocumentMemo.Save(true, false);
   domNotesDocumentMemo.Send(false);

}

My attachment is at path "my:myFields/my:group1/my:group2/my:field3".

Any help would be greatly appreciated. As I said, the solution could be very simple.
