Hey Everyone....(the beginner here)
This is my first attempt at email using VB.
I want to pull pre-selected email addresses out of a small Access Database, and send an email to those people!
I don't know how difficult this is, but I've
been experimenting with WINSOCK and MAPIMESSEGES, and had NO luck!
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Sean :confused:
Hi. I thought I might point you in the right direction seen as no-one else has.
You don't say if you can already grab the addresses from the Access Db, I will therefore assume that you can.
You do indeed need to use MAPI, which will send e-mail using the default mail client of the computer (usually Outlook (Express also), Eudora etc)
Here are a few links tht you will find of help in your quest:

Hope that lot helps you - it helped me when I wanted to incorporate a "copies" funtion into Outlook.
Good luck!
