I want to biuld a dialog box in VB studio that first allows you to select the file path to the directory of the files you want. Once this file path has been selected you can click on the email button and this file will be automatically emailed to all recipients in the email database which is in Access.
 
Hi,
The Common Dialog control will allow you to browse and select a file. You can put in a button on your form (E-Mail0 which when clicked will email the selected file to the recipients. Hope it helps. Let me know what happens.
With regards,
PGK
 
Hey pgk;

I'm not sure what the E-Mail0 command is. The email recipients have their email addresses listed in an Access table in. So when the file is selected the user then can click the email button and the file that was selected is then emailed to those email addresses. Thanks for responding to my question. I'm not an experienced VB programmer, so if you can be a little more specific I would really appreciate it.

Thanks again;
