How can I send more than one attachment to outlook in Access 2007

[Julie100]

Is it possible to send 2 reports as attachments to Outlook from Access 2007.

I usually use SendObject, but this only allows for 1 attachment.

Thank you

i use this way to send emails using VBA

Dim objol As New Outlook.Application
Dim objMail As MailItem
Set objol = Outlook.Application
Set objMail = objol.CreateItem(olMailItem)
With objMail
.To = "whoever@whoever.com"
.Subject = "TReport Update for " & Format(ddate, "dd.mm") & " data."
.Body = "Hi," & vbCrLf _
& "The Data has been updated, please remember that there may be" & vbCrLf & vbCrLf _
& "changes as this has been automatically generated." & vbCrLf & vbCrLf _
& "Regards and Thanks" & vbCrLf & vbCrLf _
& "Rob." & vbCrLf & vbCrLf
.Attachments.Add pname
.Display
End With
Set objMail = Nothing
Set objol = Nothing

you have to set references to outlook in Access,

you can repeat this line as many times as you like.

.Attachments.Add pname

I just usually change pname to pname2 etc.

pname is a variable that is set earlier in the coding.

Hope this is of use, Rob.

Hi Rob

Thanks for this but I dont seem to be able to set the Report variable. I put:

Dim pname As Report
Set pname = name of report

Do I need to set the report as an Object, eg:

Dim appAccess As Object
Set appAccess = report

Regards, Julie

This was written several years back but it might help. Not pretty.

Thanks for this code, it looks too 'scary' for me. Am I right in thinking this code attaches an Excel Doc for emailing? I need to attach 2 Access Reports.

Rob's code nearly works. I just need to set the variable for the Report. Not sure how to do this, any ideas

Thanks
Julie

Why not simply send a single report embedding the 2 reports as subreports ?

Hope This Helps, PH.

Thanks for your suggestion, but I need them as separate Reports to enable user to choose which report to print.

So, send 2 mails.
