E-mail Access Reports

Allows you to use Outlook to send bulk e-mails of Access Reports in Snapshot Format to users (ISO Printing, Faxing etc...)

Inputs
Uses an Access Database with User e-mail adresses Used DAO, thus you need to set a Reference in Outlook to the MS DAO 3.51 Library

Assumes
This code should go in an Oulook module. You can then run the code by itself or by creating a menuitem on your menus. This would also require you to first save your files as Snapshot files in a specified direcory. You can of course do this in one step but we needed to send 6 files. That would have meant six e-mails, we prefferred to send 1 only and hence the effort to first create the files

Side Effects
No Error Trapping.
