Send Object - Email

[Lee-Anne Waters via AccessMonster.com]

Hello,
hopefully a real easy one for all you smart folks.

the problem i have is in a module i have a docmd.sendobject routine that sends out a list of orders via email when a control is checked on a main form.

it is important that these orders go straight away. now the problem is when someone clicked this control they did not have outlook open and the orders did not go.

is there anyway i can force outlook to open if it is closed prior to sending these orders.

many thanks
Lee-Anne

hi,
you can use the runapp action to open outlook.
See RunApp in access help.
