I want to send an Email using code thru Outlook?

[Steve Thomas]

I want to create a system where I can email a user. Can I write this in code. Example: the time is 12:00 am. Send Steve and email that says the time is 12:00. I know how to do everything but create and send the email?

Thanks for any help

Hi,
Check out "Automating OutLook with OLE" in the tips section of this board. Page 4 shows some code.

This is how I would send an email through Outlook 98. (Remember and reference the Microsoft Oulook 98 Object Model in your project)

    Set myOlApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
    Set myItem = myOlApp.CreateItem(olMailItem)

    myItem.To = "Steve"
    myItem.Body = "The time is 12.00 am"
    myItem.Send
