Controlling PowerPoint From Within Runtime Revolution

[mfstuart]

Man I hate it when Outlook does this.
Why does Outlook double space the lines?
It does this whether I create the email body in Notepad (and copy the text
into Outlook) or directly in Outlook.

Anybody know how to fix this ugliness in Outlook?
