I assume that you mean send emails to a variety of individuals on a list.

Just do Outlook or CDO Automation in your VFP application.

For Outlook Automation you might want to consider getting a copy of the book:
Microsoft Office Automation with Visual FoxPro

For CDO Automation you might want to look at:
How to send e-mail using CDO
or
How to send e-mail Automating CDO

As far as sending to more than one individual, you can either concatenate a short list of recipients separated by semi-colons ; or send the same email multiple times to each separate email address.

Get the email sending working for one email address then decide which way you want to handle multiple ones.

Good Luck,

That are many, many ways of automatically sending emails in VFP. They all allow you to send to a list of recipients.

If you could tell us which method you are using, we can tell you how to use it to send to a list.

If you haven't yet decided which basic method to use, let us know more about your requirements. For example, are you assuming that all your users will have a particular email client installed, such as Outlook? Are you looking for a zero-cost method, or are you prepared to spend money on a suitable component? Are there are any special security considerations? Do you also need to read incoming email?
