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.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI 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?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI 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.
I have a need to store client emails in a database. In an ideal world the user would drag and drop the email over the attachment field and it would be attached. I've not been able to find any drag and drop features in Access 2013 so i am guessing this may not be possible?
It is possible to simply attach the email using the attachment field but i find this method slow as the user has to save the email to the drive and then attach it to the attachment field using the dialogue box.
I would like to import emails from outlook and I would need to select the fields which are required. It is importing some standard fields and the fields i would require is not part of that. ( For instance "Categories" field which is present in outlook)...
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have an Access database update process that is run from the Win7 scheduler. I have attempted to instantiate or reference Outlook and send an email indicating the status of the process.
Outlook fails for some reason, but it works fine interactively regardless of whether Outlook is running or not.
I am now thinking of trying SendObject instead.
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.

Must Outlook be installed for Access to send emails?
Can I send emails from the Run-Time version of Access? (with and without outlook)
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).
Currently, I'm taking my unread emails, storing them in a table then sending any Excel files to a specified folder I've modified some code I found while surfing and it works great but I'd really like to send the attachment name and file path with the email recordset.

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:
Please help!
Thanks

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!

Hello,
I am building a databse that registers all communication between a company and a customer. here is my question.
If customer A sends an email to the company how can I store that email in my database. I dont want to copy and paste the contents of the email to a memo field.
Is there a way to automate this?
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?
View 1 Replies View RelatedRecently 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.
View 3 Replies View RelatedWhich is a more robust approach when designing an Access database in regards to storing images, such as TIFFs. Is it better to store the images in each data record as necessary or is it better to just store a path in the database that points to a location of where the image resides (on a hard drive somewhere for instance.)

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?
Hello,
I wanted to catch a little advice if I may be so bold. I have a HTML form with a series of checkbox values.
Code:<form method=post action=form-test.asp><input type=checkbox name=drinks value='cocal-cola'>cocal-cola<input type=checkbox name=drinks value='sprite'>sprite'<input type=checkbox name=drinks value='lucozade'>lucozade<input type=checkbox name=drinks value='oasis'>oasis<input type=submit value='Submit'></form>
Normally I would gather these up into an array using ASP and email the split up comma separated values out to the client via an email.
Code:drinks=Request("drinks")drinks_split=split(drinks,",")'email drinks to client
However, this time I need to store those values in an access database. I am assuming that the client may want to run queries on the different array values, for example, how may people chose coca cola and sprite.
Is it better to store the value separately - one Ms access field for coca cola, one for sprite (which is what I thought I would have to do to create queries on this) - or can they be stored under one field heading "drinks" and queries be performed on different values within that field?
Could someone explain a quick way of doing the latter i possible in MS access and the SQL for querying?
Cheers,

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?
