i would like to create a button on a form that will
automatically e-mail this form through outlook.
i can get outlook to open ready to e-mail to my desired
location. i just cannot get the command to "attach" the
form...
using runapp command line "c:\program files\microsoft
office\office\outlook.exe" /c ipm.note /m "desired address"
anything...please
 
Using the Access SendObject method would be the first thing I would suggest
you look at. It is fully described in VB Help.

You might also want to investigate using Automation with Outlook. There is
sample code at the following links that can get you started:
