Hi all,

We have developed an Access database, (demo software) for people to download
from our website. Part of the registration process is having them send us an
email through our database program. All is good if they use Outlook.

If the person downloading does not use Outlook, is there some code that we
can write that will select their default email program.

Any help is appreciated.

Hi Connie,
I have been using a program called Blat (http://www.blat.net/) to do
the same thing, it even sends email out without Windows or Nortons
complaining about secuity on most PC's I've tried. Which is a scary
thing if in the wrong hands. No wonder Microsoft is getting paranoid.

Hi David...Thanks
We installed Blat but not sure what to do next. Are their any instructions?

If you use the DoCmd.SendObject method, windows will normally use the
normal mapi protocol and therefore whatever the user does use.

What command are you using to send the email?
