Is there a way to email a file to someone w/in windows forms. the user would not input anything; just click a button so the To: & From: would be inputted already

Start with this.

There is an attachment property

Ok, Since I have never created a class w/ this before, can you tell me how I would call it from my button...?

in your button click event:

dim emlObject as new Emailer

emlObject.MailTo = [b]Destination Email Address[/b]
emlObject.From = [b]Senders Email Address[/b]
emlObject.Subject = [b]Email Subject[/b]
emlObject.BodyFormat = [b] should pop up an enumeration to pick from[/b]
emlObject.SmtpServer = [b]Name or IP of your SMTP Server[/b]

if emlObject.EmailCust("",[b]Message Body[/b]) then
  messagebox.show("Email Sent!")
else
  messagebox.show("Email failed to send!")
end if

stsuing - You said there was an attachment property...

Something like this. Probable should look this up.

myMessage.Attachments.Add(New MailAttachment(fileName, MailEncoding.Base64))

 

[Compkitty]

Ok, This is giving me messages that MailAttachment is not defined...

myMessage.Attachments.Add(New MailAttachment(fileName, MailEncoding.Base64))

Add "Imports System.Web.Mail" to the top of your page
