Question about email ?

[Ianpbaker]

Hi guy's and gal's

Right, I've just taken over an application that some one else wrote. It basically a server sitter, and looks at a SQL database that holds application forms from web pages. Depending on what web page it has come from, the application makes an email and send's it off to the right department with all the information.

At the moment to mail, it uses the companys own built email system, but I want to convert it over to something like CDONTS. I know how to use cdonts in ASP and IIS, but is there any way I can use this within VB or a similar package

All the best

Yo,

Check out the jmailer Activex component at http://www.dimac.net
It's awesome for handling email and can send email without you even needing an email account/mailbox (it can also read mailboxes).

Oh and it's free.

Just add Microsoft CDO library to your references and F2. Select the MAPI library and everything that is available in ASP is there for VB also. Select one of the items and right click, select help and get examples and explanations. Good luck.
