I'm working on a database which holds information about clients. This also has a linked table which pulls information from my outlook inbox. Basically what I want is a way to sort the emails into the appropriate contacts page. I have created a sub form which is linked to the contact form and pulls info from the email table. The sub form is linked by the 'from' field in the linked email table to the 'email address' field in the contact form.
This all seems to work exactly as I want when the email address is displayed as the display name of the client however most of the time, the display name in outlook is either the contacts name or their company name.
I suppose my question is this, how can I tell access to pull the email address from outlook instead of the display name? I may be missing something here but this seems like something that should be available as standard doesn't it?
I am opening a new mail message in outlook using a button in a form.I want to change the "from" email address to a specific inbox (NOT personal email). Even though the email address is switched, after I hit sent and check my sent items - the email is actually sent from my personal email address and not from the inbox email address i wanted it to be sent from. I have access/permission to sent emails from the other inbox.
Is there a way to make sure emails are sent from specific email addresses and not ONLY personal inbox.What I read online is probably because of some "network" connection issues. Is there a way refresh connection between access and outlook? I am not even sure what the problem is.
I'm using an unbound text box and a command button to filter a list of contacts on a continuous form. The continuous form has a query for the record source and the list ends up showing only what is in the strWhere filter
Me.Filter = strWhere Me.FilterOn = True
Is there a way to have Access 2003 take this filtered list and populate the To: field in Outlook or whatever the default mail client is? Each email needs to be deliminated by ";"
I have a macro set to email a form to a person once a condition is met. This works fine but I've discovered that Outlook (2010) has to be open BEFORE this macro is invoked.
I wanted to add a step to the macro before the one that makes it email that basically says to open Outlook.
I have tried the RunApplication macro, but I apparently am not getting the path right. I don't understand what the problem is.
I accidentally dragged Outlook to my desktop and therefore created a shortcut from my Start Menu, but now when I go to Microsoft Office in my Start Menu, Microsoft Outlook isn't one of the options. I can't find the path to where it may reside now.
I am using the path to the shortcut on my desktop.
I have vba code set up to automate a query output to email with outlook. I am having issues with the "TO" field. I have tried different types of code, such as the following:
Both of these work, but the issue I am having is the "TO" field in the outlook message looks like this: admin@blahblah#mailto:admin@blahblah#
Why my code is adding the email address twice, I need to get rid of the #mailto:admin@blahblah# but I do not know how or why it keeps adding that end part.
Hi all I have a form with inserted a subform, I would like to double click on the field "date" on the subform to open the relative complete record on the original mask! Thanks M
greetings all..i have tried to use an old database template i had and re-work it for my new client..basically the user types a ref no into a search box.. there is a text list that is narrowed down to the chosen item as they user types..then they double click on the item in the list and it opens in the main form..this is how it should work.. i think im pretty close but im gettin a few problems.. i would be very grateful if someone could have a look at it...the form i want all this to happen on is called MAINFORM.. the database is very simple.. one table.. one query.. thats it..thanks..
i will show you my list box code. i would like to make it possible for my user to double click on an item in the list and it opens that record in my 'zEnquiry' form (which has the correct named fields to display the data already)
i had some double click code but i deleted it, and now ive forgotten which post i found it in.
here is the code for my listbox
Private Sub QuickSearch_AfterUpdate()
DoCmd.Requery Me.RecordsetClone.FindFirst "[Enq_Forname] = '" & Me![QuickSearch] & "'" If Not Me.RecordsetClone.NoMatch Then Me.Bookmark = Me.RecordsetClone.Bookmark Else MsgBox "Could not locate [" & Me![QuickSearch] & "]" End If
I have a few search forms that, when search parameters are entered, a continuous subform displays the results (summarised...not all fields show).
I want to be able to double click a field in any given record, and have it open in a form allowing editing of the record.
I know I need something in the OnDoubleClick event of the text box I want to double click, which would then open the form, but I don't know what code to use.
For the sake of argument, I want to double click on the txtSerialNumber text box to do it, as this is a unique field.
I all I have looked in the forum but can't find anything that matches I have a form containing a subform called eventswich shows some events in date order, as I have too many information on the table events I could not put them all in the subform if not only the essential information, what I need is if I double click on the field "DATE" it would open the "EVENT" form and show me all the information contained in the record.At the present time I have the filed SELECT RECORD set to NO on the form properties! Hope I have given a good explanation!!!! Thanks Marco
I have the following code that I have been trying to get to work:
Private Sub txtSocNumber_DblClick(Cancel As Integer) On Error GoTo Err_txtSocNumber_DblClick
Dim stDocName As String Dim stLinkCriteria As String
stDocName = "FrmApplicantFullDetails"
If IsNull(Me.txtSocNumber) Or Me.txtSocNumber = "" Then MsgBox "This record is empty", vbInformation, "No Data" Me.txtSocNumber.SetFocus Else stLinkCriteria = "[ApplicantID]=" & Me![InvestigatorID] DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName, , , stLinkCriteria End If
Exit_txtSocNumber_DblClick: Exit Sub
Err_txtSocNumber_DblClick: MsgBox Err.Description Resume Exit_txtSocNumber_DblClick End Sub
I have the following two tables:
Applicant and Investigator
Applicant: ApplicantID InvestigatorID etc
Investigator: InvestigatorID etc
The relationship is setup as 1 investigator to many applicants.
What I am trying do is this. I have form with a subform in it. In the subform there is applicant info IE SS# LName, FName and that is it. What I want to do is be able to double click on the SS# have the form "FrmApplicantFullDetails" open so you can view the work up on the applicant or edit info on the applicant.
Am I going about this the right way with the above code? Or is there something else I am missing in the code or is there code out that will do what I am looking for that is easier?
I have a text box on my form which I use to attach hyperlinks to pdf's, this works great but after inserting a hyperlink nothing is displayed in the text box to show it has been linked unlike using attachment, the only way I know if that a hyperlink is placed is to right click and go to hyperlink and then open, is there a way to show the link on the text box and just double click on it to open the pdf. I am trying this as the size of the database will far exceed the 2gb that access allows if I just use attachments , even if I split the database (over 10000 pdfs )
I want to Double-Click on a row of a subform to open a related table/form that are connected with a common ID. So far, I tried the following code, but it does not work.
Private Sub PackingSlipT_subform_DblClick(Cancel As Integer) Dim stDocName As String Dim stLinkCriteria As String stDocName = "ProductT" stLinkCriteria = "[PackingSlip_ID]=" & Me.PackingSlipT_subform.Column(1) DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName, , , stLinkCriteria End Sub
I have created an action log database that sends an email when a new action is entered. I would like to launch the database using a hyperlink in the email, but can't seem to get it to work. All users have a copy of the front end on their desktop, so whatever I add to the email needs to launch the front end for any user signed on to their own desktop.
This is what I have and it sends a hyperlink but I click it, I get an error saying it can't find the file. I don't know how to word the path name for any user?
With obMsg .subject = "New action request for " & team .To = people
I am trying to find a way to extract an email from a large text file that is an output from our email system. I would like to be able to extract the email address using a query or collection of queries. I have been able to extract all of the text that contains the @ symbol. From their I created a query expression:
Mid([field1],InStrRev([field1]," ")) that captures some but not everything I need.
I'd like a command button to open Outlook and create a new email message with the To and Subject fields already populated with what I want, is there anyway to do this?
I would like to create a button that when pressed opens up an outlook email. The email address will be populated by one email address every time. I don't want it to automatically send as the body will need to be filled out by the user. It would be useful if the date and time it was sent could be recorded in the form somewhere too (would this be in a text box?).
I've researched all the email topics, but can't find what I am trying to do. Most of these topics are talking about emailing a record or form or something.
I have a form that contains thousands of contacts address, telephone, email, etc. I would like to create a button that on click would open Outlook and grab ONLY the email of the current contact I am looking at on the form at that time and add that email address to the [To:] box of a new email.
Thanks you guys, I'm learning...slowly, but it's coming.
