I have some code, from this group (many thanks) that sends an
attachment to an email.
The following:
Dim objNewMail As Outlook.MailIte m
Dim golApp As Outlook.Applica tion
Dim initializeOutlo ok As Boolean
requires Microsoft Outlook xx Object Library in the references.
My problem is that I have Oulook 2003 (xx = 11), the PC's that I want
to run it on has Outlook 2000 or 97 (!), and more of a problem only
Access 2000 runtime.
When I load up the database on their PC because it can't find the
reference it's looking for (Outlook 11) I get a runtime error, and
Access closes. I can't change the reference to their version of
Outlook as they, as mentioned, only have the runtime.
So for now I've removed the code / reference.
My question is "How can I get around this?" I thought I was being very
clever, now I'm stumped. I need to have code that will email a file,
that is generated within Access, as an attachment.
I'd really like some generic code that would use whatever email program
they have, I guess.
Any ideas?
Thank you,
Jon 5 2868

Try late binding.
It means you remove the references, and declare like this
Dim objNewMail As object 'Outlook.MailIt em
Dim golApp As object 'Outlook.Applic ation
In stead of using the New keyword when instantiating, you use
set golapp = createobject("o utlook.applicat ion")
- or do a combination/test for existing open app through the getobject
function
Note - Outlooks specific constants must be replaced. (they are often
prefixed with "ol") For instance a line like this
set objNewMail = golApp.createit em(olMailItem)
should be replaced with something like
set objNewMail = golApp.createit em(0)

Great, thanks I'll give that a go!

Outlook is a gnarly program; MS recommends the use of CDO to send
e-mail
This sample code will send a report as html. It should run in
Northwinds.
If you take a little time and study it, you can probably modify it to
meet your needs.
It has no magic to guess your smtp server, or other parameter.
If you write it without specifying many of the properties it will just
fall back on Outlook Express default account settings, if these exist.
It should work with Windows 2000 or Windows XP.

Hi Lyle,
although this may be very useful for another project, I guess not in
this case as the clients send all mail through an exchange server, and
don't even know the relevant passwords, that for the IT bods to know!!!

Jon
Lyle sorry, I will read the reply better next time... now I note "If
you write it without specifying many of the properties it will just
fall back on Outlook Express default account settings, if these exist."
Many thanks

Does anybody know how to send a meeting request using an ics/vcs (VCalendar)
attachment from an asp.net page. I don't want my users to have to double
click on the attachment but rather that it is simply recognised automatically
as a meeting request.
The article below shows an example of very close to what I am trying to do.
The difference being that I want the email to be sent as a meeting request
not as an
attached ics file.
