error 2293 occuring with sendto command

[John Baker]

I have an error: number 2293 - which is "
Microsoft Office Access can't send this e-mail message. Before attempting to
send an e-mail message from Microsoft Office Access, resolve the problem
identified in the previous message, or configure your computer to send and
receive e-mail messages.

I am using the code as follows
DoCmd.SendObject acReport, stDocName, acFormatRTF, strSendTo, , ,
varInquiryRptType & " - " & Forms!frmInquiry.[Client Company]

It usually works and I am not sure why the error is ocurring. It occurs on
a new laptop conected to a network but doesn't on 10 other pcs nor other
laptops.

With this laptop it is possible to email excel spreadsheets using the
file/send to menu choices but in word the error message is "MAPI failure:
unspecified error"

The sento cmd I am using above is trying to send a word document so I guess
the problem is with word. Not sure how to fix it though.

Any help greatly appreciated.

The document you are trying to send is a kind of text
document created by Access, and does not require Word.

The error that you are getting is probably the same kind of
error that you see in Word, which is just telling you that
you can't send email.

This could be some obscure installation error for your email
program, with a corrupt file or missing registry entry, but
more likely your email is set up to prevent programs from
sending email messages, as a virus/security precaution.

Try asking a question about security configuration in the
news group for your email program
