This is probably an Outlook question, but maybe someone can help be out here.
(I am using VBA to sent e-mails from a Access program).
I create an e-mail object MyMail.
I then set an attachment:
MyMail.Attachments.Add filename, olByValue, 1, "My Name"
My problem is my e-mail is identified by filename, not "My Name"

Also, another question I have is that the attachment shows as an icon. What
can I do to have the attachment box of the e-mail show in the e-mail heading
with the attachment showing there?
Thanks,
Stan
 
What are you trying to do with that code?

As for your second question, how the attachment appears in the message depends on the message format -- RTF vs. HTML or plain text.
 
Attachments.Add adds an attachment to an email that I later send. I am
sending a group of e-mails where I attach different files (and different
filenames) to the emails. I would like the name of the attachment to be "My
Name" not the file name. The Attachments.Add gives me that option, but I
can't get it to work.
Thanks,
Stan
 
That option doesn't apply to attached files (there are other types of attachments). You would need to change the filename before you invoke Attachments.Add.
