Emailing from within focus exec

[vbmike]

Does anyone know how to send a email message from within a focus exec procedure? I am attempting to send an email to outlook based upon conditions in my focus exec.

You can invoke command-line mail program, e.g. on Unix:

-IF &CONDITIONS EQ 'SendingMail' THEN GOTO :SENDMAIL ELSE GOTO :THEEND;
-:SENDMAIL
!echo "The e-mail from within FOCEXEC !" | mail user
-:THEEND

On NT, you can use the 'blat' program:

I recommend you to ask on "YOUR PLATFORM" mailing list or forum, about the appropriate mailing utility.

Hope this helps,
