CDO Vs. MAPI
Apr 27, 2007
Based on your experience, what is the faster, easier way to send e-mail in the background of an Access application, connecting to MS Outlook or using a CDO connection to the exchange server? :confused:
I'm not really looking forward to switching to the exchange server and bringing our IT Dept. into my program, but if it works better I'm all for the headaches and arguements.
In case you were wondering, this part of my application tracks education hours and e-mails empolyees when their certification gets within 4 months of expiring. This is all checked with a query. It then sends a simple text message, with one recepient and 4-5 CC to remind them about it.

Hi, Im hoping this is actually possible!
I have an access dbase in which jobs are logged for completion by engineers.
Currently once a job is assigned to an engineer (by the service co-ordinator), it is transferred into that particular engineers queue (in access). what i would like to be able to do is to allow the service co-ordinator to assign the job to an engineer, and the job is then created as an appointment item in the engineers calendar in outlook. I have been able to create an appointment in outlook using some vb code, this works fine (using both: appOutlook.GetNamespace("MAPI") and PickFolder). The part I am having trouble with is I would like to select someone elses calendar (obviously not currently showing up in my select folder list).
Does anyone know how to access someone elses outlook mailbox?
cheers
Jurgen
p.s i hope i have made this easy to understand.

Hi;
I supervise a small group of people at a college. I connect to their computers through their ip addresses to share databases and files. Four out of the six people in my group have Windows 2000 and I and one other person have Windows XP.
Now this is the problem. I volunteered one of the people in my group to receive a new computer with XP (this is new to the organization) to test an image of the most commonly used software programs used in the college. There are supposed to be 5 people with test computers. The tech’s assigned to these computers are supposed to work the the employees to tweak them and make sure they work perfectly. Well our tech found a glitch. When my co-worker runs one of my Access processes (which automatically sends out e-mails in a macro) it comes out with a Mapi Spooler error. According to the tech he has done everything he can and it still doesn’t work. And because the problem is with one of the macro’s I created, they are not going any further to find the problem. They think there is something wrong with my macro.
When we first looked into the help feature in Microsoft it said the antivirus protection is the problem. The tech doesn’t think so.
I don’t know what to do. The anti virus is on the server and all our computers are serviced through our domain, so I cannot disable the antivirus.
What else can I do? I have XP and my old computer has XP and none of my processes have a problem. Any suggestions?
P.S. I am not a tech, but I do have administrators rights to all the computers in my group.
Please help.
Judy
