Email report problem
 

I have just updated my Access 2003 database to email a customer order
confirmation. This was done using a command button on the order form which,
on click, opens a Send Object macro. The macro selects the order confirmation
report and opens Outlook in Edit mode ready to send. This works perfectly on
my computer, but not on the user's computer. It works fine on his first
order, but the command button does nothing on the next one. Now, if he closes
the application and re-opens it, the command works one time and that's it.
The user has Windows 2000 and Outlook. I hope someone can help on this. I
posted this yesterday under Access Database General Questions, but got no
results.
Thanks

You expect results in one day on a volunteer newsgroup?

I would say that your Access macro needs code to close Outlook after the
item is sent. Not sure if it belongs there or in the code in the custom
form that I presume it uses.

I don't know, it works perfect on my computer. I wonder if it could somehow
be in the users Outlook settings, which ones?? Thanks for your response .

You say you updated your Access database. Was this a version upgrade, or did
you just add some email addresses?

I would expect that something has changed on the computers or the database,
version wise, rather than just some Outlook settings. Remember, this is a
programming Outlook newsgroup, not a general operations newsgroup.

You should also tell us what version of Office (Outlook and Access) you are
using, so we have an idea about where it works.

Email report problem
 

My computer: Office XP, Outlook 2002, Access 2003
Users Computer: Access 2000 (don't have the other info yet)
As for the database, I simply added an email text box and a command button
with the on click event running a Send Object macro. Again, this works
perfectly on my computer. When the user sends the first email, it works fine,
but on the next one nothing happens til he closes Access and re-opens the
application. Thanks for your help. I couldn't get a response from the Access
"General Questions" group.
