Yes it is - I didn't realise there were others!

I'm wondering if this is the problem as I've managed to get the
Batchrun program to run ok and that has a shorter path and no spaces.
Unfortunately 'Send' is in the \Program Files\ tree and it's a bit
difficult to mess with that one!

At the moment I have got the ACE VBScript working by calling the
Batchrun program and using this to run Send.  It's a bit tortuous but
doesn't seem to cause a noticeable delay.  It would be more elegant to
launch Send direct from the script but it's not that important.  I'll
probablly just see how things go for a bit and dig into it if I have
some time.

Thanks for the offer of the logging - I may yet come back to you.
