Access includes the SendObject functionality, which uses the default email client to send email:
DoCmd.SendObject acSendNoObject, , , "
[email protected]", , , "Subject Here", "Body Here"
However, this can be caught by the security warnings in Outlook. You can use other methods, like CDO, to manage this.
I've recently taken to using vbMAPI (
www.everythingaccess.com)
, which is a library that is entirely included in your Access app (no external files), which is used to get around those warnings, as well as provide with a very simple interface to build emails. It's about $60 US, but well worth the cost IMO if you need robust email capabilities across many different Outlook-based systems.
