Custom Form Code

[Joel Allen]

Hello,

I have a custom form that auto populates a Word template. I do this to
populate the subject field and it works:

objDoc.MailEnvelope.Item.Subject = "Test"

I'm trying to attach to it and it's not working. I'm trying this:

objDoc.MailEnvelope.Item.Attachments = "C:\Test.doc"

and this:

objDoc.MailEnvelope.Item.Attachments.Add = "C:\Test.doc"

and it's not working.

Any help is much appriciated. Thanks,
Joel

That's strange, it should work. Could you show all of your code please?

I neglected to mention that Attachments.Add("C:\MyFolder\MyFile.txt") is the
proper way to add an attachment.

Try removing all the On Error Resume Next statements and see if you get a
specific error at a specific point.

Great! My bad though - I thought you tried that already, but after rereading
your first post I see now it was a syntax error.
