I have a contacts database for an accountant with hyperlinks to numerous documents all set up and they work correctly - open the application and show document.
What I would really like to do is from within Access using VBA send an email to the client enclosing the hyperlinked document ( not the hyperlink itself which would not be available to the client).
My client wants the email field in a table to automatically open his gmail account and post the email address in the To: field, so he wants the field to be set as hyperlinked.

Then I can Save&Email to an Outlook contact.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a Word 2010 document linked to an Access 2010 data source. When a user clicks a button in Access, the Word document loads and performs a email merge using the below VBA code:
Private Sub Document_Open()
With ActiveDocument.MailMerge
.Destination = wdSendToEmail
.SuppressBlankLines = True
[Code] ....
However, as the .mailsubject part is not in the loop it is only retrieving the first Return Code. I have tried to integrate in the loop to no avail. Also, how do I add static text to the Subject, I need something like "Your Return Code" + "Return Code"..
I have a query (Access 2007) that contains a field named "email" (which contains email addresses, of course). I want to email everyone in the query and they are all going to receive the same message. My email to them doesn't have to be personalized and I don't need to collect data from the recipients. I don't even need a reply to the email I send.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a problem with the way my forms are opening.The problem is with the document tabs, not the in form tabs.Basically the database will open the login screen (Modal & Popup) on load, after a successful login the user is redirected to a diary events page and the login form closes, then a user can select an ID (hyperlinked) which will open up a popup/modal form for more details and then if they want they can click a button within the popup which will view all client details.
I use VBA to close any popup/modal forms and open the Main Client Screen, at this point there are only 2 forms open in Single Form format, which is the diary events page and main client screen.The problem is once you click "view client" and the form opens, it defaults to the diary events tab, so the client screen is opening behind the diary events form, you then have to click the document tab for "client screen" to be able to view the form, which is a minor issue but annoying still.
Does anybody know how to check a column of 1,800 File No. that they are assumably hyperlinked to *.pdf scanned data files to see which is actually hyperlinked which is not. Sometimes when I double click on the hyperlinked file number I get an error "unable to open file ....". There must be a way to check the whole column at once rather than check each file individually.

I'm currently working on a way to import data from many word documents into a table - I've got this working fine using the following code:
Code:
Private Sub bImportFiles_Click()
On Error GoTo bImportFiles_Click_Err
Dim objFS As Object, objFolder As Object
Dim objFiles As Object, objF1 As Object
Dim strFolderPath As String
[code]....
However, I'm wanting to add a link to those files to the table so that the user can click on the record (or select one and then use a button) to open each document in it's native environment (MS Word). I've tried adding a self-referencing hyperlink to a form in the word document and then reading that in - but that doesn't seem to work. As these files may move around (and there are a lot of them) I need to make sure it's done automatically so can't really get the user to write it in manually.
I want to have information on a form tab. Is it possible to insert a Word document in the tab? This will consist of a set of instructions for the user.
View 4 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to link a field in Access to a footer in Word?
I have a field in Access that would look like the following;
G10E-PRO-001RevA
Additional data in access would have the document name, and revision, matching 2 lines of text in Word. I would like the footer in the document to be the above sample, which I assume could be a query that need to run to match the 2 fields of information.... not really sure if this is even possible?
How do I export report or table to word document with check box so people can check them and send to me back. I can change my records.
For example
Delete ITEM
5540 (Chick box goes here, they can tick)
I have hyperlinks from within Access forms that link to Adobe PDF documents; these are the new PDF Package documents created with Acrobat 8 - and give the message "Multiple files are bound together in this PDF Package."
The problem I am having is that when ever I click on the hyperlink the computer hangs (from the task manager, I believe that it is Acrobat Reader that is hanging). This problem only occurs with multi-file PDF packages and does not occur with regular PDF's. It also only occur with MS Access, as linking to theses files from MS Word encounters no problems.
Is anyone aware of a fix for this?
I have a database which creates hyperlinks to a network folder full of images (too many to attach to the database) but I can't figure out an easy way to show those images in forms and reports. I think I'm 90% there, looking online I figured out that if i create a text field (not a hyperlink) in the original table and copy over the hyperlink text, I can use this as the control source of an image control (with the picture type set to 'linked').
That works fine, but I would still have to manually copy over the URL every time I link to a new picture - so is there a way i can get this to feed through automatically?I've tried a couple of ways already (calculated fields, 'set value' macros) but the problem is anytime I try to get clever, Access doubles the link address, making it utterly useless as a control source.
So for example, i ran a macro to set the text field value to equal the hyperlink value of c:mydocspicture.jpg,
and the result looked like this c:mydocspicture.jpg#c:mydocspicture.jpg#Or maybe there are functions similar to excel (like 'left' and 'len') which i can use to extract the right part of the hyperlink.
I have an access form that fills an access table (MS Access 2003). Also, I have a Word (2010) document/template with some template text and empty fields which should be filled with data from access. Is it possible to insert a button in access form which would open a word document and populate appropriate fields with data from that form?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a database with hyperlinks to open word documents on my network. If someone else has that word document open it will ask me if I want to notify or open in read only. However since upgrading to Access 2013, (from Access 2003), this sometimes freezes the database.
I am wandering is there a way to tell Access (or Word) to open the document in read only if there is someone using it already?
I am trying to open a word document with corresponding data filled from the text field of a form. I managed to get the word document but I don't know how to give a variable in word document.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI need a form that will send a email to certain contacts depending on which box is ticked
Have never done this previously would this be possible
I need to export my reports (invoices) to rtf format or pdf then create seperate emails for each report with email subject title of [Address] [Suburb] [Supervisor]
I also need it to only create them but not send them, as I also need to attach photos and forms prior to sending them.
Is this possible to do in access?
It was so much easier when I could just run the saved export button & drop the 1 file into email.
I'm trying to create a button who is able to send a email with an attachment.The attachment will be all the time the same file.The email address to sent to is one of the field of the database.I need a copy sent in my email address as well.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have been working on a database which is going to integrate a client database with any emails they send to me. The idea is that I will create a sub form as part of the contact information section which will show any emails that have been sent from that contact. I have a field which has the email address in the contact section and I want to link the contact to the sub form by the 'email address' and the 'from' field in the link outlook folder.
This all works great except that access links to the outlook folder and in the 'from' field, it shows the display name instead of the email address it was sent from. Is there anyway to tell it to extract the email address itself instead of the display name, or is there another way of achieving this same thing?
I'm using outlook and access 2010
I found the code below online and added it to a process I already use. It works great for what I need to do right now. The code opens the email with the email address, the file attached, and a message in the body. The only thing that is missing is the subject line, which is the month of the report.
It is a monthly report sent via a text file to another group. The form that I send this from has a table as the Control Source. The month is in that table. I can put it on the form and hide it so that it can be accessed. How to add that below so that the month would show up in the Subject Line of the email?
START OF CODE
Dim objOutl
Set objOutl = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
Set objMailItem = objOutl.CreateItem(olMailItem)
'comment the next line if you do not want to see the outlook window
objMailItem.Display
[Code] ....
I want to be able to click on a button on one of my forms and it create a new outlook email.I also want this email to have an attachment that is a report that I already have made.
View 1 Replies View Relatedwith 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.
i have code to open up an email from a form, what i would like is certain field values of the form to appear in the email
