[RESOLVED] Create Email + Outlook

Hi All,

I am looking for a vb script that opens the compose a new email window within Outlook, but has the "TO" field populated with a predefined list of recipients.

Is there is simple script to accomplish this? Thank you all in advance!

I figured it out. I capitalized on a flag MS incorporated into the outlook.exe file.

For this example, I have a text file with emails listed within it:

Example of data within the text file:

Quote:

---

[email protected]
[email protected]

---

Here is the code:

Code:

---

Const ForReading = 1

Set objApp = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")       
Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set objFile = objFSO.OpenTextFile("C:\emails.txt", ForReading)

Do Until objFile.AtEndOfStream
        strLine = objFile.Readline
        strLine2 = strLine & "; " & objFile.Readline   
Loop

objApp.Run Chr(34) & "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office12\OUTLOOK.EXE" & chr(34) &  " /c ipm.note /m " & Chr(34) & strLine2 & Chr(34)

The code opens a new email message within Outlook, and then sets focus on the subject line.

I have tested this with Outlook 2007. I am not sure if it will work for Outlook 2003 or earlier.

Thanks everyone!
