General :: Macro To Email A Form Once Condition Met - Open Outlook From Access
Apr 10, 2013
I have a macro set to email a form to a person once a condition is met. This works fine but I've discovered that Outlook (2010) has to be open BEFORE this macro is invoked.
I wanted to add a step to the macro before the one that makes it email that basically says to open Outlook.
I have tried the RunApplication macro, but I apparently am not getting the path right. I don't understand what the problem is.
I accidentally dragged Outlook to my desktop and therefore created a shortcut from my Start Menu, but now when I go to Microsoft Office in my Start Menu, Microsoft Outlook isn't one of the options. I can't find the path to where it may reside now.
I am using the path to the shortcut on my desktop.
C:UsersJust MeDesktopMicrosoft Outlook 2010
What else am I supposed to do?

I am close to getting code to send an email from access with the body of the email populated with a Rich Text textbox from my access form. The problem I am having is that the body of the email is converted to plain text in Outlook which is creating problems for me. How to identify what I can do to convert to rich text or HTML in Outlook? I also want to attach a table that is populated by a query in my application, but i haven't got that far yet.

I've researched all the email topics, but can't find what I am trying to do.
Most of these topics are talking about emailing a record or form or something.
I have a form that contains thousands of contacts address, telephone, email, etc.
I would like to create a button that on click would open Outlook and grab ONLY the
email of the current contact I am looking at on the form at that time and add that
email address to the [To:] box of a new email.
Thanks you guys, I'm learning...slowly, but it's coming.

I've setup a selection form that returns a specific list of email addresses in a query.
What I can't work out is how to press a button and have the email addresses populate the To: field in a blank Outlook email - I don't need any bells or whistles.

I am opening a new mail message in outlook using a button in a form.I want to change the "from" email address to a specific inbox (NOT personal email). Even though the email address is switched, after I hit sent and check my sent items - the email is actually sent from my personal email address and not from the inbox email address i wanted it to be sent from. I have access/permission to sent emails from the other inbox.
Is there a way to make sure emails are sent from specific email addresses and not ONLY personal inbox.What I read online is probably because of some "network" connection issues. Is there a way refresh connection between access and outlook? I am not even sure what the problem is.

I would like to create a button that when pressed opens up an outlook email. The email address will be populated by one email address every time. I don't want it to automatically send as the body will need to be filled out by the user. It would be useful if the date and time it was sent could be recorded in the form somewhere too (would this be in a text box?).

with the linking tables thing to outlook can it be reversed. ie if i have a table that was linked to outlook outbox would the records form an email just like the emails from my inbox form a record.
i wanting to send emails automatically to many recipients. so i would have to use a record set and i thought that if i build the email in a record then have outlook pick it up then that would be the easiest way.

Hi
I have written a code that composes a new mail from MS Access. It does what i need. It also gives a question before displaying the mail body :
"A program is trying to access e-mail addresses yo have stored in outlook. Do yo want to allow this ?"
If I give yes, it proceeds with composition. If I give No, it gives an error "Application-defined or object defined error". Is there any way I can avoid this error.
Thanks

Hi all,
after spending wweks perfecting a database which centres on the ability to email the contents of what you have just entered i find that our stirling IT dept haven't actually setup any of my intended users with outlook profiles and do not intend to. Therefore whenever they try and send an email they get the dialog box you get when trying to connect to the internet for the first time. Which is obviously a problem.
Is there any way around this or is there any alterntive i can use? my IT dept dont promise to setup any outlook profiles soon and im hoping there may be something else i can do before the project gets binned.
cheers
greg

I am trying to modify the following code to send an automated e-mail using Microsoft Outlook instead of Lotus Notes. We recently switched e-mail clients and now the older code does not work. I have tried to comment in all areas to indicate where the new Outlook code has been inserted.
Private Sub SendEmail(ByVal Subject As String, ByVal Body As String)
'The bulk of this code for Lotus Notes comes from this website:
Dim copy(100) As Variant
Dim strSQL As String
Dim rsTemp As Recordset
Dim Maildb As Object 'The mail database
Dim UserName As String 'The current users notes name
[code]....

I have searched, but I cant find a thread for this.
I have a calendar that I input when people are going to be off. If there is nothing for that date then the record is blank. I have a form that opens when the db opens attached to the date on the switchboard. If no one is off then the form opens blank because there is no date in the table to match. What I want to do is have a something built into the code that says if there is no match (null??) then dont open the form.
DoCmd.OpenForm "PopUpCalendar", acNormal, , "[Calendar]![Date] = Forms![Switchboard]![MainDate]"

I found a code that will go trough an emailbox and export all emails to a table in access. This part is working OK (except the received date). I also wante to show in the table if the email contains an attachment, but that part is not working at all. The project actually is meant to store the emails on a shared drive and attachments and have the emails in Access so I can see them all and recall the one needed.
Code:
Private Sub Command14_Click()
Dim TempRst As DAO.Recordset
Dim rst As DAO.Recordset
[Code].....

I have code that automatically send emails out from an Access Customer Contacts Database. I am using Access and Outlook 2007 but the code needs to work with later versions of Access and Outlook.
I have very poor knowledge of coding and usually manage to cobble something together from looking at other code on the net but don't understand most of it.
I have the following code which works perfectly except I want to be able to embed an image in the email body (not have the image as an attachment but actually show it in the body of the email).
Most of the code I have found around this topic is too complex for me to understand and utilise within the context of the code I have.
Ideally I want to take the image from an attachment field in a table returned by the "tblMailingList_Query".
Code:
Private Sub Command10_Click()
Dim MyDB As Database
Dim MyRS As Recordset
Dim objOutlook As Outlook.Application
Dim objOutlookMsg As Outlook.MailItem
[Code] .....

I'm working on a database which holds information about clients. This also has a linked table which pulls information from my outlook inbox. Basically what I want is a way to sort the emails into the appropriate contacts page. I have created a sub form which is linked to the contact form and pulls info from the email table. The sub form is linked by the 'from' field in the linked email table to the 'email address' field in the contact form.
This all seems to work exactly as I want when the email address is displayed as the display name of the client however most of the time, the display name in outlook is either the contacts name or their company name.
I suppose my question is this, how can I tell access to pull the email address from outlook instead of the display name? I may be missing something here but this seems like something that should be available as standard doesn't it?

I'm trying to use Access to send an automatic email reply upon receiving a request from a customer/employee, telling them that their request has been received and this is the tracking number and the due date of service completion. How can I do that? And I want it using Outlook because all the contacts are saved in Outlook and all emails sent and received through Outlook. And the version is Access 2010.

I can generate an email by clicking on a button on a MS Access Report. In the body of the resulting Outlook email you have formatted text. I have also included an array of values which are displayed in this email but I need to highlight certain items in the array in red based on whether or not another column for that record is checked. Here is an image of the email. Notice that I have circled "ZWO" and that it is red. I need for this to happen programmically.
