Hi

I have managed to make a button on an access form that puts a mail in the outbox of outlook but I need to get outlook to automatically dial up and send the mail without any user intervention.
Any ideas ?
 
Simon, depending on what you're trying to do, There are two ways to do this. If all you want to do is send a Note to a recipient or send an object (Query, Report) that's in the DB, then lookup "Docmd.SendObject" in Access help, if you're trying to send an attachment that is not an object in the database, then you'll need to go the more complex route.

For either one, see these 2 FAQ's
FAQ181-493

FAQ705-537

Hope this helps,
Kyle ::)
