I have been using the "SendObject" command to email reports and it works
great as long as the user has MS Outlook as their mail program. Users that have AOL (and I can't convince them it adds no value) get errors. Can the SendObject be configured to other mail programs than MS Outlook? If not can I set up Outlook on the same PC to just be used to send from Access and still have AOL for everyday mail send/receive. I will post this question on the Outlook site as well. Steve |

Sure, if you install and configure Outlook why wouldn't it work?

From a responce from the Access group I learned that the "SendObject" can't
be configured to work with AOL so my only choice is to setup outlook on the same PC and use outlook to ONLY be used for send fron Access. AOL will still be the 'defaut email pgm'. How do I do this? I have tried puting in a fake Incoming email[POP3] address and leaving the field blank. Both produce errors. so the question now is - how do I set up Outlook to only send and not recieve.

That one isn't available in Outlook 2000. Send/Receive groups were
introduced in Outlook 2002/XP. The only thing you can uncheck in Outlook 2000 is to check for new mail every x minutes on the Mail Delivery tab. -- Robert Sparnaaij [MVP-Outlook] Coauthor, Configuring Microsoft Outlook 2003 http://www.howto-outlook.com/ Outlook FAQ, HowTo, Downloads, Add-Ins and more ----- "Steve S" wrote in message ... since I cant find a tab - Mail setup' or a button 'receiving of emails' to uncheck I assume that option is not available on Outlook 2000. i am using 2000 but some users have 2003. steve "Roady [MVP]" wrote: Configure the account properly.
