Hi,

In my database I have 50 emails in my database, I want to be able to send an
HTML email to this contacts,

The body of the email is a file that I all ready do it, it's in
"C:\Emails\Birthday.html" how can I send this file

and the receiver will saw the file in the body

Thanks
 
It's not as easy as it sounds, but certainly is doable a number of ways.
Quite frankly, likely the easiest way is to have the HTML document housed in
MS Word, and then merge that document to email.

There are third-party tools that can perform this as well (but of course
must be purchased).

Before this feature was available in MS Access/MS Word, I wrote a VB/Access
application that did exactly what you are talking about.

It:

-- sends an HTML document, with a text-only version if desired;
-- you can specify attachments;
-- you can have pictures embedded in your document if you want;
-- you can have merge fields in the HTML file that are filled-in during the
emailing process;
-- it speaks directly with an SMTP server (bypassing Outlook security
warnings).

If you want, I'll send it to you, but seriously don't be surprised if it
overwhelms you. I'll tell you, there's much more to sending an HTML email
than you may think.

If you really want to brave it, email me at (e-mail address removed), and
I'll send it to you.
