[killerrj8]

Ok Guys i need help how can i get this to work :

        Dim text As String
        text = TextBox1.Text & TextBox2.Text + vbLf
        Dim myClient As New Net.Mail.SmtpClient("smtp.web.de")
        myClient.Credentials = New NetworkCredential(Form2.TextBox2.Text, Form2.TextBox3.Text)
        myClient.Send(Form2.TextBox2.Text, Form2.TextBox2.Text, , "test", text)

so i want to send it to a mail adress that hasnt been declared and that you have to enter first .... it says me that VB cant handle it.... can u help me please ?

In all the years, and all the versions, of my VB experience I have never seen an error message that said "VB Can't handle it."

Could you give us the exact wording of the error message please?

Also, is it happening on the "myClient.Send" line or somewhere else?

i tried with google translator and its in the last line !
so heres the translation
Error when overload resolution, because no accessible "Send" accepts this number of arguments

or somethign like that

Remove the empty argument from your parameter list. That is:

'change this:
 myClient.Send(Form2.TextBox2.Text, Form2.TextBox2.Text, , "test", text)
'to this
 myClient.Send(Form2.TextBox2.Text, Form2.TextBox2.Text, "test", text)

If you look at the documentation, you'll see there's two overloads. One takes a MailMessage parameter, the other takes four strings. If you provide any other combination of parameters, VB .NET doesn't have a method to call and will complain.

You're trying to use the one that takes four strings. You're providing five strings and an empty argument. That's not going to work. stanav is trying to tell you this. There can't be something missing in your blank space because there is no Send() that takes five parameters. stanav's suggestion is correct.

But stanavs suggestion doesnt work , cause VB tells me if i use his code that something is missing

I understand that it's difficult to translate the error, but if we don't know the exact error message it's hard to help. Nothing can be missing because you have provided four parameters. Let's try going back to your description and figuring out what's going on:

Error when overload resolution, because no accessible "Send" accepts this number of arguments

OK, that's strange. That would indicate that no available overloads take four arguments. But we just looked at documentation that says you need one or four. Either you did not type the code properly or you aren't telling us the right error message. Make sure you didn't include all of stanav's code; you were supposed to change your line that matches his first line to the second line. In other words, delete your "myClient.Send(..." line and replace it with this:

myClient.Send(Form2.TextBox2.Text, Form2.TextBox2.Text, "test", text)

If that doesn't work, something strange is going on and it might take more of your code to decide what is causing the problem.
