Thanks Ron,
I knew about fms's Total Access Emailer but I did particularly want to
part with the $299 that it costs and if they can do it there must be a
way.
I was thinking that a simple VB.NET app should be enough.
But I am not sure of the code that would be necessary.
Could you explain the code that was contained in your answer?
Thanks Nick
