SendObject 255 Character Limit?

Hi all,

I've read that the message argument in SendObject allows a max of 255
characters. Is this correct? If so, doesn't this render SendObject severely
restricted as a way to send emails from Access?

Regards,

Penny

That is not correct. There "might" be some limitation that exists if you use a
macro to call SendObject, but from code you can definitely go way longer than
that. If there is a limit I would expect it to be around 32000 characters.

Hello All, I had written a quick email procedure for a client that uses DoCmd.SendObject. However they have the SR-1 version of Access 2K. They do not have the SP-3 upgrade. The procedure does not work all of the time (it seems to fail on long emails). The procedure works fine on my computers that have the SP-3 upgrade. I read about the SP-3 upgrade and it evidently repairs some SendObject bugs. Unfortunately, the client has another...
