E-mail report in access

[Guest]

I want to e-mail a report that I have created and go to "send to" and then
e-mail to recipient. The e-mail form comes up and I complete it buit when I
go to send it it tries to connect to hotmail, even though the office account
is not hotmail and therefore does not send it. Can I change this to allow me
to send it using account already running in office???

Many thanks

Try removing the hotmail account from your email system's list of accounts.
Somewhere you have set hotmail to be the default email handler.

Mine is in the Outlook Express accounts, but I set it up some time ago
before Hotmail had restrictions on pop 3 servers. I'd still look for it
there, just in case it may have been partially set up at one time, either in
Outlook or Outlook Express. Also, in the Start menu, there is a command to:
"Set Program Access and Defaults". You might try setting it there as well.
This isn't really an Access problem, so that's about the limit of my
knowledge on the subject. If this didn't help, I'd suggest trying in the
Windows Shell newsgroups, which deal with defaults, or in a newsgroup
dedicated to the mail system you are using.
