Sig,

Thanks for the quick reply.  I finished my thought, which might help you figure out what I'm missing.  As an aside, I would like to identify and finalize the Outlook hotkey that launched that email before I was ready - I've never seen Outlook do *anything* that fast.

Bill

a rough analogy is something like that:

Object>>beFinalizable
"A shallow copy of the receiver will receive a #finalize message, once the receiver become garbage"
