I am using Access 2003 as database.
I have an Excel file with Employee which would be placed in my "C:\" folder on a daily basis.
It would be stored as "C:\" & [ Today's Date ] & " Employee.xls".
For example today's file is
C:\03-10-2010 Employee.xls.

I would like to write a macro in Visual Basic or MS Access VBA which would email this Excel file to "Rsmith@XYZ.com".

Could some one please suggest me a code to send email through MS Outlook.
 
Use either the Workbook.SendMail method in excel VBA or the DoCmd.SendObject method in access VBA.

Hope This Helps, PH.

Thank you for the suggestion. This works fine. When I am using this method, the MS Outlook is displaying an alert that another program is trying to access MS Outlook and if it can allow this.

I would not like this to be displayed because, it is a bit bothersome for the end users, and also it is not possible for me to set this code as an automated task.
Could you please suggest, as to how I can avoid MS Outlook display this message.

Thanks
