// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

// Start with an empty MIME object...
loMime = createobject("CkMime")

// Initialize it as multipart/alternative.
loMime.NewMultipartAlternative()

// Create a text/plain part.
loPtMime = createobject("CkMime")
loPtMime.SetBodyFromPlainText("This is the plain text body.")
? loPtMime.GetMime()
? "****"

// The text/plain part looks like this:

// 	Content-Type: text/plain
// 	Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
// 
// 	This is the plain text body.

// Create a text/HTML part.
loHtmlMime = createobject("CkMime")
loHtmlMime.SetBodyFromHtml("<html><body><p>This is the <b>HTML body</b></p></body></html>")
? loHtmlMime.GetMime()
? "****"

// The text/html part looks like this:

// 	Content-Type: text/html
// 	Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
// 
// 	<html><body><p>This is the <b>HTML body</b></p></body></html>

// Add both parts as children of the multipart/alternative
loMime.AppendPart(loPtMime)
loMime.AppendPart(loHtmlMime)
? loMime.GetMime()

// This the result.  The boundary string was automatically generaetd.

// 	Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="------------080803090906030708030908"
// 
// 	--------------080803090906030708030908
// 	Content-Type: text/plain
// 	Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
// 
// 	This is the plain text body.
// 	--------------080803090906030708030908
// 	Content-Type: text/html
// 	Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
// 
// 	<html><body><p>This is the <b>HTML body</b></p></body></html>
// 	--------------080803090906030708030908--
