    vb6 - send email with attachment using smtp

    This little project sends email with attachment, using ssl if required.
    Some part of the code is not mine, but i made this for most people who still find is difficult to send email in vb6, so they can use as a template. it is simple and straight forward

    Re: vb6 - send email with attachment using smtp

    Hi everybody!
    this project works for gmail, but it doesn't works for microsoftonline smtp server.

    smtp server: smtp.mail.emea.microsoftonline.com
    port: 587
    with SSL

    The error: -2147220973

    The user and pwd are correct. I cant use them for configure client.

    If I can't do it with CDO.Message, how can do it?

    I'm hopeless.

    Could anybody help me, please?

    Thanks in advance.

    Sonia.

    The error is: -2147220973 - Transport error in server conection.

    I think, CDO doesn't support SSL/TLS authentication.

    Re: vb6 - send email with attachment using smtp

    it does support ssl, this app was tested with gmail before posting. make sure that you enable pop access in your email account online first before using the app, and also make sure that you password is correct.

    Re: vb6 - send email with attachment using smtp

    I don't know how the rest of you got it to work but I sure don't have any luck with it. I just can't get it to work when using the server smtp.live.com. The port is at 465, Req SSL is checked, username and password are correct and my from email is correct. I always get the same error The transport failed to connect to the server

    Re: vb6 - send email with attachment using smtp

    Need Help,
    I have below code i want to record in each sheet only 50 data. Can anyone help me.

    Private Sub print()


    Dim cnn As New ADODB.Connection
    Dim xlApp1 As New Excel.Application
    Dim xlwk As New Excel.Workbook
    Dim xlSheet1 As New Excel.Worksheet
    Dim xlSheet2 As New Excel.Worksheet
    Dim ctr As Long
    Dim SQL As String
    Dim rs

    cnn.ConnectionTimeout = 15
    cnn.CommandTimeout = 30

    g_strDBName = dbPath & "\BarqCell Data\DSS.mdb"
    'creates a new databse conection and sets the conection string
    Set cnn = New ADODB.Connection
    Constring = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0; " & _
    "Data Source=" & g_strDBName
    cnn.ConnectionString = Constring
    'Opens the database conection

    cnn.Open

    If DTPicker1.Value = "" Then
    MsgBox "please select date"
    Exit Sub
    End If

    SQL = "select number from tblWarehouse_Received where date =#" & DTPicker1.Value & "#"
    Set rs = New ADODB.Recordset
    rs.CursorLocation = adUseClient
    rs.Open SQL, cnn, adOpenDynamic, adLockOptimistic

    xlApp1.Interactive = True

    Set xlwk = xlApp1.Workbooks.Open(App.Path & "\Asia.xls")
    Set xlSheet1 = xlwk.Worksheets("Asia1")
    xlSheet1.Select
    Set xlSheet2 = xlwk.Worksheets("Sheet2")
    xlSheet2.Select
    xlSheet1.Range("B6").Value = Date
    xlSheet2.Range("B6").Value = Date
    ctr = 9 ' start data after headings

    i think i made wrong in below code could you please fix it to me. so i can record only 50data in each sheet.
    Do While Not rs.EOF
    ctr = ctr + 1
    If ctr <= 50 Then xlSheet1.Range("B" & Trim(Str(ctr))).Value = rs("number")
    If ctr > 50 And ctr <= 100 Then xlSheet2.Range("B" & Trim(Str(ctr))).Value = rs("number")
    rs.MoveNext

    Loop


    xlApp1.Visible = True

    'xlwk.Save
    'xlApp.Quit

    'handleError:
    ' If err.Number <> 0 Then
    ' MsgBox "Error #: " & err.Number & vbCrLf & err.Description, vbCritical, "Critical Error"
    ' End If

    End Sub
