Sending Email from MSWord (RESOLVED)

[trisuglow]

I have an application that automates MSWord (creates a table, fills in some values).

I want my application to finish off by sending the word document as an Email. I don't want to send it as an attachment - I want to send it as plain text or, ideally, HTML. I know this can be done because I can do it from Word using the File\Send To Mail Recipient command. Trouble is, I can't work out how to do it from VB. Even recording a Word macro doesn't help me much.

I don't think I can use the RoutingSlip method for two reasons:

1. The address I want to send to is not in the Global address list.
2. I do not want to send the document as an attachment.

This will place the document into "email mode" allowing the user
to enter a valid email address and "Send a Copy" embedded as
the body of an email message.

Application.CommandBars("Standard").Controls("M&ail Recipient").Execute

Thanks RobDog888. I've gone with your suggestion and used SendKeys to fill in the address and then tab to the subject and fill that in as well.

Good solution.
