Email problems on Access... Help.

[Guest]

Hello, I'm having a little problem trying to send an email from access using
this line:
DoCmd.SendObject acSendReport, "Send Quote Report", acFormatRTF,
"(e-mail address removed)", , , "Test", "body Test"

Ok the problem is not an error on logic or at least i think... the error is:
Microsoft Access
Run-time error '2287'
Microsoft Access can't open the mail session.
Check your mail application to make sure that it's working properly.
Debug or End

I don't have a clue at what might be the problem since my outlook express is
working fine. May be some one has seen this error before and can help me
come with a solution. Thanks in advance for any kind of help provided!

Thanks,

Luis A. Marrero

Is Outlook Express open? I find that these errors are far less frequent if
the default mail application is open and minimized.

Tom,

The solution on that article didn't work for me. It tells you to go a delete
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\8.0\Common\MapiDLL, but in
\Common i don't have a \MapiDLL. I think maybe that is because here they
have never installed office 2000 or may be because i'm running winxp pro...
Any other idea?

Thanks for trying and helping me...

Thanks,

Luis Marrero

Hi Luis,

Try performing a Help > Detect and Repair operation from within Access (or
any Office program) to see if this might help cure the problem. If it does
not, then try the following KB article:

Windows XP
