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 am using a form to send an email but part way in the process a message box pops up with 2 buttons labeled: Allow and Deny with some other information. I am forced to select allow in order for the send process to be completed.
Is there a way to prevent this popup so that the process completes smoothly without interruptions?
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 the following code in a module that sends out various email updates to me when I'm off site. On my PC it works perfectly whether I have Outlook open or not. I've installed the database on several other machines, but I'm getting a Run Rime Error 287 on the .Send line if the user has Outlook closed. Any setting somewhere in Outlook or Access that needs changing? Or is there something that can be changed in the code to ensure the email sends whether Outlook is open or not?
Code: Public Sub SendEmailNotification(strSubject as String, strMessage as String, strAddress as String) Dim olEmailApp As Object Dim olMsg As Object Dim strEmailBody As String Set olEmailApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application") Set olMsg = olEmailApp.CreateItem(0)
Using Access 2010; I have code that generates multiple emails to send using outlook. It works fine except that all emails go to my draft folder and I have to go the outlook and send them individually. This is fine when I have under 10 emails; but sometime it can get up to 50 or even 100 emails. What I have to do to send them from my draft all at once. The emails go to draft to inspect for errors.
I'm using CDOSYS and SMTP in a vb function to send emails via Ms Access 2003.
My code loops through a recordset an sends an email to the email address in the table.
However, all works fine until an invalid email address is encountered, at which point I get an 'Invalid address' error message and the code halts (obviously). BUT, if use 'On Error Resume Next' I get no error message but all consequtive emails are NOT sent.
How can I get the code to ignore the invalid email and carry on sending emails throughout the recordset?
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?
At present I have a tblData, a tblPeople, a long union query and a report that displays its results. On a form I select a person from tblPeople (another field on that table contains their email address), run the query and report in that person's respect and email the results to them.
What I want to do is add a button which runs some VBA code which cycles through tblPeople, runs the query for each person, works out if the query has returned any records from tblData for that person, and if so - sends them the report.
I'm trying to automate some processes. My company uses Outlook 2010 and every day we need to go into our "Sent" folder and rename the Subject line of all of our sent emails. We change the subject to a standardized format depending on the content of the email and who the email was sent to. These are then used as part of an equation to tally our Transactions Per Hour. (TPH)
I've already designed a small Access 2010 utility to track the TPH, but I would like to add the functionality to parse some data from the subject lines of my "Sent" folder, and automatically make changes to save some time.
Here is my thought process:
- Click "Process Sent Emails" button from TPH utility. - Access runs through each email in the "Sent" folder (or perhaps only selected emails) and changes the Subject line per simple Select Case criteria (I can figure that part out).
I have seen a MDE Access db last week with 2 new things in it
1. The db had 2 customized menu (1st one was in English and Second one was in Local language). There was small button on customized menu bar called 'E' by clicking of which the whole customized menu was replaced by English menu bar. In fact the db was created for bilingual user. There was only one customized menu bar at a time. Means if you click command button 'E' it was replacing the local language menu bar with English bar and if you click 'E' second time (This time the button caption is in local langauge), the English language menu bar was re-appearing
2. When the user clicked to change menu to English, all the forms and report captions turned into English.
It was very new thing for me.
I am interested to apply the same tricks in my db so the user can handle my db in local language even if don't know English well.
I would be grateful to If somebody amongst you know and donate to our access family in a sample db (At least replacing menu trick) ...
I have created user security with limited access for specific groups to certain forms in my database.
However, when a user attempts to open one of the restricted forms a Generic Microsoft Access Message Box opens. Am I able to customise this box so that the box Heading is not "Microsoft Access" and so that the user is not offered the option of "Help"?
Really all I want is a box that says;
"You do not have the permission to open this form."
I only want an "Ok" box as an option (not the "Help" box as well)
Ok...I've looked at old threads and now I'm more confused than before. I'm trying to find a way to make my field "PCRTrackingNumber", work like this: 05-0001...05-0002...05-0003...and so on. The 05 represents the year. I currently have the field setup as autonumber, set to Long Integer and increment. Even if it looked like 05-1...05-2...05-3...etc. that would be fine. Basically just looking for a way to add "05-" to the prefix. I was trying to think of a way to combine a field to the autonumber field and use that instead...but need some help. Thanks, Jeff
I am pulling my hair out trying to create a customized menu bar. Eventually, I want to have a customized menu bar and tool bar for report and different customized menu bar and tool bar for forms. I created the tool bar for the report window. Then when I tried to create a new menu bar I could not remove menu selections without removing the same menu selections from the default Menu Bar.
I selected View->Toolbars->Customize... Then I clicked on New (command button) Then I named it (RptMenuBar) Then I selected 'Built-In Menus' from the Commands Tab Then I dragged the 'File' from the Command list into the new Menu Bar Then I went to the new menu bar and dropped down the selections under File and started to left click and drag what I didn't in the NEW MENU BAR. However, it turns out when I did that the same selections were removed from the default Menu Bar.
I was ablel to restore the default Menu Bar. But I want to have a customized Menu Bar and be able to select that new Menu Bar and associate it with every Report that is in my Database.
Any ideas? If you have some good instructional references, please point me in that direction. Thanks.
Hello, I am a beginner and know a little about access. I am trying to create a customized Primary Key with an auto number. I want it to look like this: VP001 ,next record, VP002 and so forth. When I enter a new record and want it to do this automatically. It could be VP1, then VP2, I don't need the extra zeros but it would be nice. I don't know how to do this. If someone could please help walk me through this. Remember I am a beginner with databases and need help.
I have a form that I designed that contains two subforms.The first subform is an entry subform so you can post the current client visits.The second subform I want to just display all prior client visits and make updates or deletions if needed.
It does not appear that I can make the first subform entry= yes additions allowed=YES in the properties.The second subform I want entry=No and addition=no..When I pull up the properties sheet for each of the subforms these options do not appear. They appear only on the main FORM, FORM property sheet. I thought I could create two new forms with the properties I desire and then copy them into the main form.
I'm just trying to implement a "customised error message" that will pop-up if data is entered and it's invalid. (I've created a "query" and a "search" form which these two link together).
I have created a DB with many tables and I want to find a way where I can retrieve all the emails from every table (each one has a column with emails). Does anyone know what to do? If a record doesn't have an email address do I have to type N/A or just leave it blank?
I am creating a recruitment db for 6 members of staff, I have created a form (add new vacancy). Within the form is a various drop down boxes where you can select each employee and drop down box to pick which company want a vacancy filling. What I wanted to do is when a new vacancy is put on the system, and the administration team select save record is it possible to email the employee to let them know a new vacancy has been added, and also email another administration department to send the employee a suitable candidate list with the information provided on the form. Or am I asking far to much from access. The two fields that are most important is who the vacancy belongs and which company want the vacancy. The db is available if you require a look to have a better insight. Thanks for all your help.
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.
I am sending emails when the user press a button, but the problem is:
1 - How to check is LNotes is open 2- How to know if the user needs to enter the password.
With the following code an email is sent ONLY if notes is open AND the psw is not required.
Public Sub Sendmailf(Task As String)
Dim nSession As Object Dim CurrentUser As String Dim DataBaseName As String Dim nDatabase As Object Dim nMailDoc As Object Dim nSendTo(60) As String 'array for 60 e-mail address Dim EmbeddedObj As Object
Set nSession = CreateObject("Notes.NotesSession") CurrentUser = nSession.username DataBaseName = Left$(CurrentUser, 1) & Right$(CurrentUser, _ (Len(CurrentUser) - InStr(1, CurrentUser, " "))) & ".nsf" Set nDatabase = nSession.GETDATABASE("", DataBaseName) Call nDatabase.OPENMAIL Set nMailDoc = nDatabase.CREATEDOCUMENT With nMailDoc
I apologize ahead of time if this has been asked before but I can't seem to find it anywhere.I need to create an email using email addresses from an access table. I used the sendobject syntax in vba to test the process.DoCmd.SendObject acSendReport, "copy2nd", acFormatXLS, Me.cboMngEml, , , "Entitlement Review Report", , FalseHere are my questions:Is there a better way to do this?If I chose to do it with the sendobject method, am I limitted to 255 chars for the body of the email?Can I use a draft email I created in Outlook? If so, how would I do it?I am using Office 2003 SP2 in WinXP SP2. If you need more information, please let me know.Thank you.
