This ought to be simple, but I've not been able to figure out how to do
this.
I have a request to create a list from a sql database to be displayed in a
datagrid on an asp web page.
So far, so good.
What I now want to do is one of 2 things:
1. put a hyperlink at the bottom of the list, either in the footer or just
below it, saying "Click here to email Mr. X about opportunity pricing". and
what I'd want the hyperlink to do is create an email with the mailto (and a
cc:) and a subject already filled in.
An alternative:
2. add a column to the datagrid, that would have similar info in it, but in
this case, I'd like to grab the SKU number from the cell on that same row.
The email would come up to Mr X, a cc: to Mr. Y and the Subject would be
Opportunity Pricing - Item ABC" the next line would be similar, but it'd be
ITEM DEF or whatever.
Anyone have an idea as to how to do something that seems to be this simple?
Maybe I need some more caffeine....
Thanks,

Steve,
Instead of using the MAPI capabilities of your Web browser, I would
recommend that you use System.Web.Mail and the MailMessage class to send
the e-mail. You can then specify who the mail is from, who it should go
to, what the subject should be, what is contained within the body, etc.
That way, the user doesn't have to see the mail message and then click
Send. It just goes.
If that's what you want to do, respond back with the language you are using
and I'll write you a small sample.

Steve,
If you want to send the mail from the server using VB.NET, you would do
this:
Private Function SendEmail() As Boolean
Dim sb As New StringBuilder("")
Dim message As New MailMessage
Dim boolSendSuccessful As Boolean
boolSendSuccessful = True
With sb
.Append("This is my message." + vbCrLf)
.Append("This is another line." + vbCrLf)
End With
With message
.To = "so*****@somewhere.com"
.From = "yo*@yourdomain.com"
.Subject = "Auto-Sent E-Mail"
.Body = sb.ToString()
End With
Try
SmtpMail.SmtpServer = "mail.mydomain.com"
SmtpMail.Send(message)
Catch e As Exception
' Do something to handle the exception...
boolSendSuccessful = False
End Try
Return boolSendSuccessful
End Function

How would you pick up the .from part for the specific users who are viewing
the results?
For instance, this would be used by both some of our salesreps as well as
some customers. The users are all authenticated using NT Challenge
response.
I can hard code the TO: part of it, because that's always going to the same
person.
Also, is there a way they can edit the body of the message?

Steve,
You would need to provide a way for your users to input their e-mail
address to populate the From property.
Can they modify the message? Yes. Simply give them a multi-line TextBox
control.
