Hello,

Last time when I double click my email button in the form, it will
automatically turn me to my yahoo email.

But now when I clcik it it goes to my outlook email, while I want it to go
to my Yaho. email.

This is my hyperlink address property: mailto:

How can we make it that my default email is Yahoo

Thanks for any help.
 
This can't be done directly using the Access email abilities. They are built
for using MAPI compliant email clients. Yahoo is a browser/web client. You
can open Access to Yahoo using a URL, but you are limited to opening the
page, not filling in the details necessary to use it.

Well, you could probably figure out how to fill the fields in a web
browser. After all software such as KeePass which fills in user
accounts and passwords for you does that. But that's not for the
faint of heart either.

Arvin,

It worked well last time, but now, since I install outlook email in my computer, it goes to Outlook email open.

Thanks for your help.
