Sending email messages with MS Access

Using an MS Access module (VBA Coding), I would like to send out an email message to certain people in the organization whenever a new record has been added to the table. Is this possible to code? If so, how do I begin; what procedures and functions will I need to use? How do I go about doing this?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thank you
 
JACD,

This depends!!!

Triggers don't exist in Access so it can't be done at table level....at form level, this is easy......either by using MAPI, a mail specific API or by the good old DoCmd.SendObject.....but it only works if you can ensure you're using forms.....
