I have a work order request form that needs to be sent from person to person
to be completed. I have a command button on the form with an event procedure
entitled "Send Work Order". How can I instruct the recipient how to retrieve
the proper record if I identify each record by using an autonumber?
 
Not sure what you are asking.

Saying something like...


"Please complete Work Order Number 125666"

Should do the trick.
 
Right now, the message in the email states "You have been sent a work order.
Please access the work orders database via the switchboard on your desktop.
Use the "Find Record" button at the bottom of the form and choose record
number ##.

My problem is that when I do this I get a message stating something akin to
"You cannot retrieve that record now." Any thoughts? By the way, I think by
now I surely must owe you a cold beverage.
 
I created the email message myself using the macro action titled
"SendObject". Are you referring to the message that said I cannot access the
record or the message I created?
 
No - I meant the vba code. I don't use macros at all, so I am not sure how
to proceeed. Let's see if anyone else jumps in with some ideas.
