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.
VBcoders'Option Explicit
Public Sub MailToUsers()
Dim myOlApp As Application
Dim myItem As MailItem
Dim Path As String
Dim myAttachments As Attachments
Dim db As Database
Dim rs As Recordset
Dim BodyMsg As String
On Error GoTo myErr
'Set Database and Path to use to use
Set db = OpenDatabase("z:\DatabasePath\dbDatabaseName.mdb")
'Set Path to where Files are located
Path = "z:\SnapshotFilesPath\"
'Set Value for Body Message
BodyMsg = "Type whatever bodymessage you might need"
'Set Recordset to Users Table
Set rs = db.OpenRecordset("tblUsers")
'Open or use Outlook
Set myOlApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
rs.MoveLast
rs.MoveFirst
Do Until rs.EOF
'Creates a new Outlook MailItem
Set myItem = myOlApp.CreateItem(olMailItem)
With myItem
.To = rs.Fields("[Email]")
.Subject = "Supply your subject line here"
.Body = BodyMsg
End With
'This Creates an Outlook attachment
Set myAttachments = myItem.Attachments
With myAttachments
'Do for all reports
