I would like to generate an automatic email after entering on a certain field
in a form. In this email I need to include only certain information from the
record, e.g., date, user name, trouble (it's a Help Desk Database), severity
level, etc.

Thanks for any info.

The SendObject method (of the DoCmd object) will send an e-mail. You
can use it to send a message and attach an Access object (hence the
name), but you don't have to include an object attachment. Look it up
in the help file of the VB Editor window -- I don't think you'll easily
find it in the Access application window's help.
