Creating a e-mail message

[MDJ52]

I currently have a program that uses info from an ACCESS database to generate e-mails to Outlook. The program works excellent and generates nearly 500 e-mails per day to requests bids from our clients.
My problem is that now many of our clients no longer accept e-mails with attachments. Our request for a quote is a .doc file that is created to the hard drive and then attached.
I know I can create a message by setting the .body portion of the object to the actual text of a message.
Is there a way to bring a document in as part of the body.
Thanks for your help.
Mike.

If the programs written in VB, you should be able to open the document, get the text and insert it into the body of the message. Not sure what the code would be, but somebody should be able to steer you to it. Tom Jacobson ...
