I don't know if I am in the right discussion group if not please tell me
where to go.
I have a form in my database that is in a tab control with 4 tabs. The first
tab is for contacts. What I would like to know is there anyway that I can
send an e-mail to the contact after I get the information entered. I set my
contacts table e-mail field to hyperlink so the e-mail data is in Blue and
Underlined, however it does not show up on the form that way even when I
refresh the form. I tried using a text box with a DLookup but that did not
work either.
I don't want to use addresses in Outlook just the address I enter in the
database and do not need to store the address in outlook either.
I don't know if this would be done with a command button and a macro or what.
If it is possible to do this and it requires code please let me know where I
would enter that as far as if it goes in an event procedure or a command
button or what. Also could you give me the code if that is the way this has
to be done.
I am a novice still at Access and especially with something like this
getting into another program.
Thanks
