SYMPTOMS
Using the Visual Basic MAPI controls, you may get the following error message trying to add an attachment to a message:

RESOLUTION
If you want the body of the message to appear blank except for any attachments, add a space to the MsgNoteText Property for each attachment to be added.
STATUS
This behavior is by design.
