Sending Lotus Notes email in Access

[Beeyen]

Good Day,

I have Lotus Notes which I use to going through a network, so it does have
global addresses. I would like to send various filled out forms through email
or just plain email notifications from Access. A lot of the information I
found on the public and discussion board is old and either will not open or
refers to Outlook, Web mail, etc. Does anyone have a link for instructions
to get me setup to use email via Lotus Notes using the network or if I could
utilize the table with email address that would be great too. If the coding
for email is relatively easy to medium to enter into field property, would
you please provide me some assistance.

Thanks

Let me know, any help would be appreciated.

Thank you for the quick response.

I am assuming I can copy and paste the coding have provide to the event
procedures of my send email command button?

Can you advise where the snippet password coding located on your site should
be placed? And should this by pass the password necessary when Lotus notes
opens or does it just bring up the password screen?

Dim MailPassword As String
Dim lnSession As notessession
Set lnSession = CreateObject("Lotus.NotesSession")
Call lnSession.Initialize(MailPassword)

Thanks again

I copied those snippets of code from newsgroup postings. So I don't
even know if you would need a password to send an email. I'd suggest
trying without it first. Otherwise you'd have to figure out a good
means of storing the password so it can't be abused.
