Macros with Word and Outlook

[Edgar Thoemmes]

Hi

I am trying to write a macro to automatically send out
remittances to our clients when we have made a payment to
them.

The document is an HTML but I assumed the best way of
doing this was to open in word and then write a macro in
word to email out to an email address on the document. I
can get this document into outlooks new message screen but
as soon as i click on the 'TO:' field the macro wont
record it. I guess this is because i am recording the
macro in word and outlooks is a different program. Is
there any way of doing this?

Thanks

You cannot record a macro to send mail. You will need to write your own VBA code. See http://www.slipstick.com/dev/vb.htm for basics.
