Reports :: VBA Script To Email Attachment Data Type?
Jun 17, 2015
I have a database that has the table [tblAttachments] to store various attachments. In this table I have a primary key [ItemNumber] and an attachment data type field. This table holds all attachments for a Customer/Record.
What i am trying to accomplish is being able to code a command button to send the Attachment file (eg. various type of files .doc; .exl; .jpg etc) as an attachment in an email.
I have found some info on saving them to the local harddrive but this is not going to work for my specific needs.
I am working on an Access DB and I need to email individual reports to email addresses linked to the corresponding email. I would like these email to be sent though outlook and the attachment to be a PDF.
I am using Access 2007 and I am trying to create an attachemnt type field in a table. Yet when I select the types of Data Types, attachement is not an option. Can you possibly tell me why?
I 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.
Hi, I was wondering if it's at all possible to add an attachment which is a pdf file to an email? I've searched this site and can't seem to find anything on this. Thanks Geno
For my db, which has send object command to send a *.snp report in email object, I want to include some more attachments. On click event should get the files from a local drive and attach to email message along with report.
I have a field in my database (I'm using Access 2007) configured as Attachment under the DataType column on DesignView.
I was expecting to find an option to limit the attachment size (max 250Kb) and more importantly to limit the filetype you can actually upload. In my specific case only jpg should be attached.
I have table call "empTable" and it has an Attachment field called "Attachment". Some of the records has empty Attachment field and some record has one attachment and some has two and the attachment types are jpeg and pdf.
I want to remove all the pdf from all the records in this table automatically with VBA or something, is it possible? How to do it?
I have the following code to send a email with outlook, what I need is to automatically collect a attachment named commissions located in C:document and settings/Documents/... Private Sub cmdSendEmail_Click() DoCmd.SendObject acSendNoObject, , , cboEmail.Value, , , "Commission Request", "A new commission request has been submitted." End Sub
My Situation: I have a form which merges with a table of 123 Names & Addresses. The only thing these records have in common is an ID #. And the name of the company the ID Number belong to.
Now what I need to do is send in an Email the ID# and Company that the ID# belong to.
Here is an example: Toys R US #45
In the records there is "Gi Joy" "XBOX"
But they all are connected to the #45
When I try to send from the form I get a table as an attachment with all of the records in excel format when using the following code:
This mailmerge document draws its personal information from a query in my database. And sends off personal emails to a number of donors.
I want to attach a personal document called 'Allocations.docx' which is also a mailmerge document drawing its personal information from the same query. How can I automate the attachment of this document to the email so that each donor gets their own email plus their own attachment?
Can something be added to the existing line of VB which will do what I want? If so, what do I need to add?
I am trying to run a script to look for the latest file in the path: "C:UsersmeDesktopReports and grab the latest file and email it to recipient? Right now my script out put the .txt to a the folder but can figure out how to send that file as attachment?
I wish to attach to an email a specified "Shortcut" such that recipients will be able to simply click the "attachment and the Access application will open.
I have searched the forum quite extensively but the perspiration has overtaken the inspiration so any assistance would be appreciated.
Below is the complete code that I am using
Private Sub Combo206_Click()
Maint_Sup_Close = Now()' Update a field Dim Attachment As String Dim MailDoc As Object Dim AttachME As Object Dim EmbedObj As Object
Dim s As Object Dim db As Object Dim doc As Object Dim rtItem As Object Dim Server As String, Database As String Dim strError As String Dim PI As String Dim Description As String Dim Work As String
Dim Email As String Dim Docket As String
PI = Me.PI_No_1 Description = Me.Desc Email = Me.Created_Email Docket = Me.Docket_ID Work = Me.Work_Required
Set s = CreateObject("Notes.notesSession") Server = s.GETENVIRONMENTSTRING("MailServer", True) Database = s.GETENVIRONMENTSTRING("MailFile", True) Set db = s.GETDATABASE(Server, Database)
On Error GoTo ErrorLogon 'see if user is logged on Set doc = db.CREATEDOCUMENT On Error GoTo 0
Set doc = Nothing Set db = Nothing Set s = Nothing Set rtItem = Nothing
MsgBox "Message Sent"
ErrorLogon: If Err.Number = 7063 Then MsgBox " You must first logon to Lotus Notes" Set doc = Nothing Set db = Nothing Set s = Nothing Set rtItem = Nothing End If
End Sub
I am a bit out of my depth and would appreciate a guru correcting the error of my ways
Is there an easy way to have Access format all values in a particular field with the hyperlink data type to add the mailto: prefix so you can just click on the links to email someone?
- I have emails with excel attachments coming in multiple times a day to outlook.
- I want to click a button in Access and automatically import the last excel attachment in my email in box based on the timestamp of when it came in (thus getting the last one).
I need to create an email with an Access report attached as a PDF. I am using Access 2007 and Lotus Notes.If I use SendObject with acSendReport and acFormatPDF, it opens an email just fine but the attachment is created with some random letters and numbers and .tmp as the file name.
If I use Adobe Reader to open the attachment it displays correctly as a PDF, but I need the attachment name to be .pdf so it will automatically open with Adobe for the users.Is there a way to accomplish this with Lotus Notes? I have searched this forum and found some options for Outlook users, but not for Lotus Notes.
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
I want to do it bring up a form from which the user can send an email, and on the form is an unbound text box [Text1] in which the user can paste the attachment path.
Code: Dim olApp As New Outlook.Application Dim mItem As Outlook.MailItem ' An Outlook Mail item Set olApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application") Set mItem = olApp.CreateItem(olMailItem) ' Add the To/Subject/Body to the message and display the message
[Code] ....
So, when I paste the file location into Text box [Text1] I get the Run Time error that the path does not exist or is not valid. Yet when I use the next line which is the same path, all is OK.
I have Access 2007. I have a form where I can attach PDFs, Word documents, etc with an command button. This atachment is then put into a field in a table which has the email address and works fine.
The attachments are there in the field with the paper clip in the field title.I have a command button with an embedded macro that opens OUTLOOK and the email form with the email address and all the other information inserted perfectly. How do I get the OUTLOOK email to grab the assoiated attachment(s) from the record in the table and send them with the email? I can send the email without the attachment just fine.
The attachments cannot be located in a common path. They must be in the field in the associated record and each attachement will be different from one record to the next.
The emails are sent one by one, not as part of a group.
The form name is TASK DETAILS.
The email command buttin is called E-mail
The table is called TASKS
The attachment command buttin is called Attachments
