Hi! I'm using Access 2003 to send email through a form. User have an option to choose whether or not if he/she want to review the message (made any changes if desired) before sending the message. Since I have to record if the email is actually sent or not, After using the .Display then later the user decide to cancel the mail. Is there a way (or different approach) to detect that error in Access after user's email cancelation? I know using .Send method does allow us to detect such error. Here is the code:

Private Sub cmdSendMail_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_Mail_Cancel


Dim intSeeOutlook As Integer

Set myolApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
Set myItem = myolApp.CreateItem(olMailItem)
myItem.To = Me.txtAttorneyEmail
myItem.Subject = Me.cboCaseName
myItem.Body = "This will be the default Message"

intSeeOutlook = MsgBox("Preview e-mail message?", _
vbYesNo, Me.cboCaseName & Me.Caption)

If intSeeOutlook = vbYes Then
myItem.Display
Else
myItem.Display
SendKeys "%{s}", True

End If

DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acNewRec

Exit_cmdSubmit_Click:
Exit Sub

Err_Mail_Cancel:
Me.Undo
MsgBox ("Your Mail has been canceled!")

End Sub
 
Hi, not sure if this is what you are after but:

intSeeOutlook = MsgBox("Preview e-mail message?", _
vbYesNo, Me.cboCaseName & Me.Caption)


Select Case IntSeeOutlook

Case is = vbYes

myItem.Display

Case is = VbNo

…Do something else

MsgBox “Ok, not showing email”

End Select

DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acNewRec
 
Thanks dRahme for replying. Let me explain in the different way:

At: (User choose to preview message before sending)
Case is = vbYes
myItem.Display
After the myItem email has been opened, the user hit the "X" button to close. The email was not sent. How can I detect that the email wasn't sent so I will not update the record using following:

Me.Undo
MsgBox ("Your Mail has been canceled!").

Thanks again!
