View 2 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: Send Email Attachment Using Form Data Using Automation
Jun 20, 2013I am currently using SendObj method to send an Outlook email and selected report as an attachment using the current form's data. This is triggered by a button click.
This is working well apart from having to use 'ClickYes' to outwit the Outlook 2012 security system.
However I now need to selectively send an extra pdf file with some of the emails based on a Yes/No field on the form. This is a fixed file on my local C drive.
I think I have to use automation to do that but I can't find a method of specifying the report I currently use in the SendObj method in the .Add.Attachment line.
Do I need to run the report and then save it so that I can specify the path and name in the .Add.attachment line followed by code which will delete the file? or is there a means of combining the code I currently use in SendObj to create the pdf object with automation option?
I have working code for both attachments at present but they send separate emails and I would prefer to combine them if possible.

Problem Filtering Yes/no Data Data Type
Oct 2, 2006I’m not an expert in Access and hope that someone can help me with my problem. I have about 20 fields of Yes/No data type.
E.g.
StudentID- Tex
Science – Yes/No
Math – Yes/No
Biology – Yes/No
Chemistry – Yes/No
Economics – Yes/No
...
I would like to create a parameter query (without using form combo box) where when I run the query, it would prompt me for the subject name. Let say I keyed in Science, it would list out all the StudentsID who took up Science only (with a Yes) and the other subjects.
Pls help.
Thanks.

Data Type?
Mar 5, 2007Hi,
Trying to get back into Access after a long time, just need some refreshing :) tips.
I have 2 tables, one of the tables stores titles (mr, mrs, etc). I tried using the 'lookup' data type to link the data from the other table. This however stores the field as a number and causes problems on my form as only a number is shown rather that the text.
What do I need to do to resolve this? :confused:
Thank you.

Custom Data Type
Jul 12, 2005i am creating a database that will include four (4) tables that need to have an autonumber as a primary key, but i need that autonumber to be preceded by a letter (one letter for each table). i am creating forms for the users to based on these tables for users to enter data. please help...i'm running short on time. thanx!
the database i'm creating will be used to store city issued permits. there a 4 different types of permits that can be issued, some w/the same info (i.e. contractor, owner) and others with different data (certain permits are only issued for a specific # of days, others require a tap or meter size, etc.). i have separate tables for the contractors, owenrs, and payments, but each payment needs to be associated with a particular permit #. for example: check #3 from john doe contracting is associated with permit # m123, or h123, etc. that's why i decided to have a separate table for each permit type. i was attempting to avoid data redundancy. i also need separate forms for the users to enter data into as per their request. i'm open to suggestion if you have some other ideas. thanx in advance. :confused:
Data Type Problems
Apr 27, 2006I have a table that i need to be able to store text that may be over 255 characters long. I have changed the fields datatype setting to memo as I thought this was able to show Up to 65,535 characters. But the data is still being trimmed to 255 characters. I have looked in Access help at data types and it states that the memo field length is 65,535 characters
"if manipulated through DAO and only text and numbers [not binary data] will be stored in it, then the size of the Memo field is limited by the size of the database."
My question is?
How do I know if it is manipulated by DAO
If it is not manipulated by DAO how can I change it (if possible) as I really need to full data to be retained
I am using Access 2000
Thanks for any advise

Reformatting Data Type
May 25, 2006OK, i'm getting a type mismatch. I've tried searching for that and read a lot of posts, but none hit the nail on the head.
I know where it is. I am trying to link two table by using a field which is a string in one to link to a field which is a number of some kind in the other. I can;t change the formats of these as it's a query i'm running on a database i don't control. I understand I need to convert the format of one of the fields in a query and then link using that, but when i try to reformat the number it doesn't do what i'm expecting after reading the help.
in the help it suggest using this:
Format(expression[, format[, firstdayofweek[, firstweekofyear]]])
So i'm trying to use that to reformat the string field to a number so i can use that query.
Numbers: Use predefined named numeric formats or create user-defined numeric formats: This is where i fail completely!! it just rejects everything i write in my query.
