How to generate emails using Access

[Guest]

I am a novice user of access. I am currently building a "Leads" database for
the compnay I work for. I am going to need to generate emails to our
regional sales manager containing information for leads in there area.
Basically what I am trying to do is have a button on a form that will open an
email with the data in the body of the email, the user could then select the
regional manager from there address book.

I have built a couple databases before, but have never figured out how to
automate emials with data in the body.

Any help is greatly apprectiated.

Barry,
Use the SendObject Function for your email.
You can specify everthing you'll need within the arguments of the
function. If you leave the TO blank, your email app will open and allow you
to select one or many TOs. You can also call the value of a text box or
memo field on your form as athe BODY text.
