Mass Emails From Access
May 13, 2007
I recently posted a question in the REPORTS section asking if it was possible to generate a report that contains only the email addresses of my contacts to generate and send a mass email. There were no responses to that...so that makes me ask - Is there anyway in Access to generate mass emails using only the email address field in a table or query?
I am aware of other programs you can buy to do that - but was hoping to stay within Access.
Thanks for any help!

I have a database for clients and have set up a form and code to run a query for different types of clients and to send emails to the group.
Everything works fine until I try to send and then I get a Microsoft Outlook pop-up which states:
"A program is trying to automatically send e-mail on your behalf. Do you want to allow this? If this is unexpected, it may be a virus and you should choose "No."
This message stays for 5 seconds and then I can click on "YES" and it will send the email, and start all over for the next recipient.
I am assuming this is an Outlook Spam Blocker, but is there any way to stop it?
Thanks

Hey
I have created a database system to book appointments between tutors and students in a school.
In the form, I want tutors to be able to send appointment details to students via email. I have created tables consisting of these details, however I don't know how to set it up for emails to be sent.
I am finding this very difficult especially with the visual basic codes. :confused:

I have an excel spreadsheet that I imported into a a table called LBCItyProfiles.
I have Another excel spreatsheet that contains our portal users info, I imported it into a table called Export.
I need to see which Emails Do Not Exist in Our Export database but exists in the LBCItyProfiles.
Both Databases have fields called EMail. I need to return the FIrstName, LastName and Emails of users that do not Exist in our Export database. I should not return Emails that are in the portal but not in the LBCityProfiles because maybe thats why my earlier SQL was not working:
SELECT LBCityProfiles.Email
FROM [LBCityProfiles] LEFT JOIN [Export] on [LBCityProfiles].Email = [Export].Email
WHERE [Export].Email IS NULL
This SQL returned Emails that Existed in the Export database but not in LBCityProfiles database, I do not want it to do that. I just need to see how many LBCity ids did not make it to the portal.

I need a way of saving a copy of an email in Access. I am using Outlook for an email client. I have heard I can create a command or procedure in Outlook that will open a window (combo box?) with case numbers linked to an existing Access database. By selecting the case number a copy of the opened email will be created that can later be accessed (no pun intended) through Access. Is this possible?

I'm wondering if there is anyway I could drag and drop an email from outlook into a field in access? we are currently taking the email and converting it to PDF, then adding it to an attachment field with the appropriate record it corresponds to.
I'd like to be able to simply have access and outlook open, and drag the email from my inbox right into access and store it in access, is this possible?

I've created a table that is linked to a folder named New within MS Outlook. I've created a form that will read the emails within the table, and manipulate the data into another table. After the manipulated data is inserted into the other table, I'd like to move the email from the New folder in Outlook to another folder named Pending within Outlook.

Recently created a database with a form that the user provides problematic information. The form has a close button that has a macro attached that initated an emails and send the form information in a report to the end user . My problem is the function works great when the sender has a Outlook account. When the sender has a gmail account - the command will not work. I read that VBA can be written but I am not able to write SQL.My level with access is using built in functions and commands.

I have a contact form on our website which sends an email to the business dev team saying that the user has requested to be sent product sheets. The email contains the users name, email, phone number, and a few other fields. Is there a way I can send the details of these emails to my access database automatically?

Te only thing is that I don't have much control over it and would like to build something similar as we also need to work with access 2003 (still )Any way to find how the code works (if there is some of it hidden in access)?

Using Access and Outlook 2010. I have a database that tracks Contracts for our University. One of the fields it tracks is Expiration Date.
Is there a way to have Access prompt Outlook to send an email to my boss when the contract is a month or within a month from expiring?I'm assuming when the database is opened it would have to run a query for expiration dates expiring within one month of today's date (which i know how to do).
I just don't know if it's possible to generate an email or some kind of message with those records/contract numbers displayed? I should also note my boss is the only one who uses this database so even if the email notice isn't possible, is there a way to show a message of what contracts are expiring soon when he opens the DB?

In an Access 2007 module, is there a way of sending an email to a list of people stored as a list in a table in the database, rather than having to put all the names into the function?
I have a function I'm using to generate and send out an email to certain people, but the list is constantly growing so I'm looking for a better way to manage it! The main issue is having to kick users out of the database every time I need to update the recipients list... because it's stored in the code.
If I create a simple table containing all the names, how could I then ask it to use that instead?
This is the function I'm using currently - found on here and adapted to my own purposes
Syntax to use for the function: SendNotesMail "recipients", "Body Message", "Additional Text", "Subject"
Code:
Public Function SendNotesMail(strSendTo As String, strBody As String, strExtraText As String, strSubject As String)
'This public sub will send a mail and attachment if neccessary to the recipient including the body text and additional comments from the Active record
DoCmd.OutputTo acOutputReport, "REP09emailnotification", acFormatRTF, "x: endersgroup tendering databaseTenderUpdate.rtf", False
Dim Subject As String
Dim Attachment As String
[Code] ....
So I guess my question is: how do I get my recipients from a table into the strsendto?

I have a table called Contacts in Access:
ID Email
001 email1
002 email2
003 email3
004 email4
008 email5
010 email6
And I have a table called Data in Access:
ID Date Person Title Yes/No Action
001 20/4 Mr A Consultant
001 20/4 Mr B Supervisor
001 20/4 Mr C Consultant
004 20/4 Mr D Consultant
010 20/4 Mr E Consultant
010 20/4 Mr F Supervisor
What I'm looking for is coding that would start with the first ID number in CONTACTS and see if there is the corresponding ID in DATA. If there is, then I want it to create an Outlook email and have:
1.To field populated with the email address in the CONTACTS table
2.From and CC fields to be my email address
3.The subject line needs to read [ID] "Request" and then today's date backward (e.g. 20150420).
4.The body I need to put some generic wording and then a table with the records from the DATA table (first 5 fields plus the headings).
5. The format of the table etc isn't important as long as it is a table format
If it's created the email I want it to go back to the DATA table and put "Email Created" in the Action column for those IDs.
I don't want the email to automatically send; I only want it to create a draft (as this data needs to be manually confirmed before sending).
If for example it gets to checking in DATA table for ID 002 (and as seen there's none there), I want it to skip creating the email and move on to the next ID.
In the end I would expect to see 3 draft emails open in Outlook ready to be sent, looking something like the below (just 001 below)?
From... my email
To... Email1
CC... my email
Subject: 001 Request 20150420
action the below:
ID Date Person Title Yes/No
001 20/4 Mr A Consultant
001 20/4 Mr B Supervisor
001 20/4 Mr C Consultant
And the DATA table look like this (if only 001 email was created):
ID Date Person Title Yes/No Action
001 20/4 Mr A Consultant Email created
001 20/4 Mr B Supervisor Email created
001 20/4 Mr C Consultant Email created
004 20/4 Mr D Consultant
010 20/4 Mr E Consultant
010 20/4 Mr F Supervisor
I will need to add more data to the CONTACTS table over time, also the DATA table will be different each day so I need the coding to accomodate for both of these possibilities.

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.

Hello, All.
I have a table that collects training information for our company. Some training is limited to one or two employees and that is easily entered by using a form linked to the table. However, some training is mandatory, company-wide training that all employees must attend. How can I add a record for each employee reflecting this training most efficiently? Is there a way to do a mass update?
Thanks.

Hello,
I'm trying to update this movie database, and I need something to save me time, not to mention my finger.
One field in this db tracks if a movie is colour or black/white. In the old/existing db, that was done with text - "color" and "black & white". I want to replace that with a yes/no field [Color].
But the db has a few thousand entries.
What I would like to do is either change all of the [Color] fields in the new db to yes, and then manually uncheck the ones that are b/w. But I guess it should also be possible to do the whole operation automatically.
Any ideas as to how to accomplish either of these would be appreciated.
Thank you.

I am sending out multiple emails to my customers in my customer table manually. As it is time consuming to send to about 100-200 customers daily, I am wondering if it is possible to automate the process in access in such a way that I can load all files from a particular folder and the access application will be able to sort the files in the folder for each company based on their name in the field(e.g.CompanyABC_DailyReport,CompanyDEF_DailyR eport) before sending out.
Any advice will be appreciated.:)

I've been asked to come up with a way (one-off) of renaming over 100 hundred tables. The table are all called "STUD_ADMIN_blah". We need to remove the "STUD_ADMIN_" part of the table name.
Is there a nice easy way of doing this without having to physically rename each table individually?
Thanks in advance.

I have several thousand hyperlinks that need to be changed due to our network server being changed. I have tried to change the hyperlink field to a text field and do a find and replace. (See mandaman post 3/13/06) The problem that I have is that all the hyperlinked fields have a different text comment in the field to identify the hyperlink to the user. When I change the hyperlink field to text then it thinks that the text in the field is the hyperlink and in fact it has nothing to do with the actual hyperlink. Any suggestions?

Hello, I have been working on my database for sometime - searching this forum for answers, thanks to all the experienced people for their sharing of knowledge.
My question is this: My database will be over several years of data, on my splash screen (switchboard) I would like to have a combo box of with choices for years. When a user chooses a year, the entire database is filtered. Say if the choice was for 2005, then anything with a binderdate of 01/01/05 to 12/31/05 will be filtered.
This will need to be done across several tables, queries, forms, and reports.
Once the choice is made for that year - any form the user is on will be filtered for that specific year.
I am still fairly new at access programming, so any code snips or working examples would be greatly appreciated.

Hello gang!
I've read through many of the threads relating to sending Email from Access but can't seem to find quite what I'm looking for. I work as a Tutor Coordinator at a local college and I've set up Access to handle a lot of the day-to-day chores that our administrative assistant has to deal with.
One feature that would be absolutely wonderful would be to create and send Emails to students at the click of a button. I have several types of Email I'd like to be able to set up, but the one most needed (and probably most complex) is this:
Students come in to the office and request a tutor. If we have a tutor available, we assign them to an available tutor. If there is no tutor availabe, then every Friday we send out an Email to each individual student saying something like this:
"Dear John Doe - We currently do not have a tutor for MATH 101 at this time, but when one becomes available we will let you know... blah, blah, blah..."
I'd like to set it up so that the body of the message comes from a template - such as a text file (that is easily edited by a user) and populated with fields from a query.
Probably do something like this:
Query the Student_First_Name_field, Student_Last_Name_field, Department_Name_field, Course_Number_field, and Student_Email_field. Send an Email to each Email address pulled from the Student_Email_field and tell them the following - "Dear <first name, last name> we currently do not have a tutor for <department name, course number> at this time... blah, blah, blah..."
Currently the way the administrative assistant handles this is to send each student an Email individually - manually creating each Email with the specific data needed. As you can guess, this is quite time-consuming.
I'm rather new to Access but have been a RDMS programmer (in PICK) for several years. I know what it is I want to do, but don't know how to do it in Access.
Any help?
Would the best way be to use text files for templates?
Can text files be set up with field codes (Access recognizes "<LAST NAME>" to be Student_Master_Table.Last_Name_field)?
I'm guessing this will likely have to be a Visual Basic loop that works with data from a query.
Help? *grin*

I have 300++ Excel files that contain data in the format of column1 = textual identifier, column2 = numerical value. Each file can have up to 1300 rows. The text identifier will be 95% the same in all files with slight variations.
I want to create a database to store the numerical value of each identifier from every excel spreadsheet and average the value.
This should be ~1300 instances, each with 300++ value assigned to it. Then run a report to pull the average value of every instance/identifier.
My (many) questions as follows..
-Is Access a good way to go about this?
-Is there an efficient way to bulk import from excel ( I just saw a script to do this below )?
-How to set up tables/queries/relationships?
