How do you generate email autom. when database is updated?

[Guest]

I run a web work order program called Accessable. It's old and I would like
to modify it so that when a user puts in a work order, the Access database
can generate an email to me to alert me that I have work so I don't have to
keep opening the program to see if I have work orders.

Don't ask...work for education, limited funds.

Thanks

Karen,

I have the feeling this is beyond the scope of Access. I say this only
because I asked for a similar feature in a more complex database at my
workplace and was told that it was beyond the capabilities of the application.
