does anyone know what's Simplest way to send an email from Access using Lotus Notes
(no attachment required)
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
doc.Form = "Memo"
doc.importance = "1" '(Where 1=Urgent, 2= Normal, 3= FYI)
'Send an e-mail to
doc.SENDTO = Email
doc.RETURNRECEIPT = "1"
doc.Subject = "Maintenance Request Closure"
Set rtItem = doc.CreateRichTextItem("Body")
Call rtItem.APPENDTEXT("Maintenance Request " & Docket & " for " & PI & " " & Description & " This request was created by yourself and has been Completed. Please confirm Completion")
Call rtItem.ADDNEWLINE(1)
Call rtItem.APPENDTEXT("")
Call rtItem.ADDNEWLINE(1)
Call rtItem.ADDNEWLINE(2)
Call rtItem.APPENDTEXT("Request Details were")
Call rtItem.ADDNEWLINE(2)
Call rtItem.ADDNEWLINE(3)
Call rtItem.APPENDTEXT(Work)
Call rtItem.ADDNEWLINE(3)
Works fine down to here
next line gives error 13 Type Mismatch
Set AttachME = doc.CreateRichTextItem.Add("file:\absmanuf_serverabsmanuvMaintManagReposit oryEmail_Cell_Mcs_Maint.mdb.lnk")
SetEmbedObj = AttachME.EmbedObject(1454, "", "\absmanuf_serverabsmanuvMaintManagRepositoryE mail_Cell_Mcs_Maint.mdb.lnk")
doc.SaveMessageOnSend = True
Call doc.Send(False)
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

I've got a form which emails out a report when a new record is added to my database but I'm stuck when it comes to making it send it to more than one recipient.
I came across this on the web... which suggests I should be using an array but I don't know anything about arrays.
For multiple email addresses you just set MailDoc.sendto to an array of variants each of which will receive the message. So
Code:
Dim recip(25) as variant
recip(0) = "emailaddress1"
recip(1) = "emailaddress2" e.t.c
maildoc.sendto = recip
My problem is I'm not sure how to implement it? My 'recipients' are being pulled from a query... how do I get that into the array of variants?
Hi ,
In MS Access,
I used sendobject to send the object via Lotus Notes, but I want to skip to click the Send button from the Lotus Notes, everytime, when I sent, it goes to the Lotus Notes, then I need to click the send button again on the Lotus Notes for confirmation to send the mail. How can I skip it?
sendobject ........................, False
I used False or True, it still cannot be solved.
Please let me know, thanks.
Thanks.
Does anybody know how I can change the default mail client from Outlook to Lotus notes? I'd like to use the sendObject utility to create a macro which sends data I enter into my form.
Thank you to all ahead of time :rolleyes:
I want to send an email thru Lotus Notes by clicking on a command button and need some help.
I have a tabular form which displays info from a make-table query. I would like to have a command button next to each record, which when clicked will send an notice(email) to the corresponding email address.
The following are displayed for each record:
I'm trying to create a lotus notes email through vba that contains data from one of my access tables. Since I'd like the data to be displayed in a tabular fashion, I'm trying to format the body of the email in html.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI 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 have been sending plain text emails for a while, but now I have a project where the formatting of the text needs to be specific and I need to send as rich text.
I can use the rich text from a table, excel, or word, but I am at a loss on how to get the data to Lotus Notes.
Noob needs guidance.
I've worked with Access before but I've never had to setup mass mailing using Lotus Notes retrieving the data from Access.
I'm basically working with Access 2003 with a database containing all the clients information with email and personalised messages and it needs to be sent out through Lotus Notes R5 Release 5.0.11
I've done searches on this site and I've found many codes but I was wondering if there was a beginner's guide to this.
If anyone has links to where I can read up on it that would be great too.
Your help is much appreciated. Thanks in advance for your help.
Hi all,
I have a list box which has several columns. What i'm trying to do is have a button that when clicked takes the values of the selected list box item and put them into a new lotus notes email. It doesn't need the address or any other detail, just the info into a new mail. I have seen some post's here but not sure i understand them (bit of a noob to access/vba).
Is this possible to do and can someone please point me in the right direction?
Thanks,
Spinkung.
Reading all mails from a Lotus Notes database, a view, a collection is not that difficult.
What I Need, but no where found is HOW TO Import the actual marked or opened mail, so only ONE mail, the current mail.
I have a VBA code to import mail from Lotus Notes into Access. The database user is able to read his email inside Access, similar to any email program.
Unfortunately, when I use the GetItemValue (lotusscript) method to read the body of the email message, Notes will render the Rich Text information as Plain Text, and I end up with no formatting information (bold letters, underline, text color, etc.)
How to import messages from Notes to Access and keep the text formatting? I am storing the data in a Rich Text Memo field in a table. I have found code to write HTML (MIME) messages, but not to import them into Access.
Can anyone help me send an email with an attachment from within Access using Lotus Notes as the mail client?
Huge round of drinks to anyone who can crack this for me!!
bottoms up!
Hi guys, here is my problem.
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.

hi,
i'm using access 2000 to create an application. i need to get the information of Staff, but the Staff informationis in Lotus Notes 6.
my problem is how to link table from Lotus notes document?
an for your information exporting from Lotus Notes then access 2000 link table to that exported file is not an option.
anyone help?
regards,
askaccess :confused:
the user opens a certain mail and THIS mail should be either saved as PDF (for example by CutePDF - as it works with a word-doc) to disk or be imported to my Access datebase in a certain field (the Body of the mail).
But I could not find code to catch just the OPENED Mail, there are a lot of examples how to loop through a Folder or a view reading all mails in it, but no one for just the ONE.
There should be something like "uidoc", but I cannot manage it.
So in real, my problem will be to "detect" the opened (or at least the marked) mail in the Notes GUI. In Outlook I do this with ActiveInspector.CurrentItem, but in Notes?
I am looking to see if i could possibly get code that would allow me to send a calendar invite from Access to Lotus Notes?
View 2 Replies View RelatedHello everyone,
I am having some issues getting past primary keys. A little background on what I am doing:
I am a Lotus Notes Programmer by design. We have decided to move away from Lotus and Access seems to be the choice to replace some of our applications. I have created a DB in access 2003. I have my tables created. I have my forms created. I was able to export from notes about 70,000 documents. In notes I had one main form and from that one could create any number of children documents(the parent doc generates the key and its passed to all the children documents...so some records in a ccess in the same table will have the same key. I set to DUP's OK for those tables). The documents are link by their unique document ID's. Well I needed to maintain that relationship when importing the documents to access. Which is working without a hitch. BUT where I am stuck is on new records. I need the same field that is linking all of the imported documents to autogenerate a primary key for new records..and I need that key to be passed to all the other tables in which I am storing all of the other children documents(records). Not sure how to get this done...
I hope I explained enough if not please me know what other information you need to try and help me out.
Thanks,
Tom
I have a function which generates a report as a RTF file, then sends it out to a list of users via Lotus Notes. The list of users is generated within the function using a query. The code worked fine while I was testing with just me in the recipients... but as soon as I add more people to the list, I get Runtime error 7294: Unable to send mail, no match found in name and address book(s) If I copy and paste the generated list into a new mail message in Lotus Notes, it accepts them all....
I THINK this is because when it's sending from Access, it's trying to use my personal address book, rather than the one that's held on the mail server... Does that sound plausible / feasible? If it does, how to change this?
I tried changing the recipients list to have the 'actual' email addresses in it rather than their names - when I did that I got no errors... but it didn't send the email, either!
I am looping through a Lotus Notes view through mails which comes with standardized content from our homepage.Some of them have one or more attachments, some mails do not have attachments. I loop through the view, read the content, write the content in a table, extract all the attachments (if there are some) and remove the mail from view this into another view.
The loops runs through without error, but is skips the mails without attachments, so that after the "first loop" all mails without attachments remain in the view, whereas all with attachments have been processed accordingly.With another start of the function all the mails WITHOUT attachments are processed accordingly as well.This is not logic for me, as all code I found on the web looks like this:
Do While Not LNDoc Is Nothing
Set NxtDoc = LNView.GetNextDocument(LNDoc)
'check if Attachments are in the mail !!!!!!
If LNDoc.HasEmbedded Then <----
[code]...
I receive mails through LN and loop through a certain folder, reading DeliveredDate, Body, Subject and writing those items into an Access-table.This works fine, before I go for the loop I put the doc in another folder and remove the current doc from the folder.
Call LNDoc.PutInFolder("SMSBackup", False)
Call LNDoc.RemoveFromFolder("SMSResponse")
Set LNDoc = LNView.GetNextDocument(LNDoc)
Loop
Without any error, without anything abnormal in the mails the code exits after a few loops, sometime after more or sometime after less read mails.The problem ist the RemoveFromFolder, not the PutInFolder function.
So to avoid this behavoir, I changed my code to finish the loop without
Call LNDoc.PutInFolder("SMSBackup", False)
Call LNDoc.RemoveFromFolder("SMSResponse")
and added after the loop a NotesCollection which should do ALL at once.But this part of the code does nothing at all (allthough found on the web).
With LNCollection
.PutAllInFolder "SMSBackup", False
.RemoveAllFromFolder "SMSResponse"
End With
The complete code looks like this:
Set objNotes = GetObject("", "Notes.NotesSession")
Set LNdb = objNotes.GetDatabase("myServer", "MyNSF")
If Not LNdb.IsOpen Then LNdb.OpenDatabase
If Not (LNdb Is Nothing) Then
Set LNView = LNdb.GetView("SMSResponse")
[code]....
Does anyone know if it is possible to send an email when a button is clicked?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI currently have a database which logs issues that come in to me from the business. The database has been designed to keep all stakeholders informed of there request and for the user to write to the stakeholder with a responce through Access. (The reason for this is so the database keeps track of all responses sent back to the stakeholder.)
However even though i am using a memo box the database will only send about 255 characters and no more. I understand this is the max value for a text box however this should not be the case for a memo box. :eek: :confused:
Is there anything i can do i am currently using the following code:
cmdEmailAssignedTo : On Click
="ID " & [ID] & ": " & [Title] & " Status: " & [status]
My database is almost complete just having this one problem... is it a function within access that can not be resolved?
I will send the database over if needs be...
Thank you in advance,
Jay :eek:

I'm updating a database that automatically sends an email to the drafts folder of Outlook. The developer that created the database used VBA code to call html code written in a table. The html code contains the body of the letter. I've figured out most of it but I need to include a date (one month from the current date) in the body of the letter. Unfortunately I've been researching java script and html all weekend and still haven't managed to figure that one out. Can anyone out there help with this? Also is this normal to include html and javascript in Access, I have never seen it before. Are the benefits good? I have serious studying to do if this is the case.
