Runtime error 2001 (sending email)

S

Shifu

I use a danish version. That's why I don't always understand the
meaning.
But Yes, - Kunde Nr is/have a lookup field (textbox)
No combo box!

Douglas J. Steele skrev:
When you open the table and put your cursor into the Kunde Nr field, does a
combo box appear?

To check for lookup fields, open the table in Design mode, and select the
Kunde Nr. Look at the bottom left of the form that appears. Switch to the
Lookup tab. If it's got something there, you've got a lookup field.

What is actually a lookup field and how can I check it?
Everything is create manualy. No wizard is used.
I made a copy from somewhere on the internet and just correct it to fit
with my DB.

I've tryed the debug on varTo :
varTo = DLookup("[Mail]", "[Kunde]", stWhere)
Debug.Print varTo
It came out emty in the immediate window
Don't know if you can use that to anything.


Douglas J. Steele skrev:
But Kunde Nr is a numeric field: you proved this by the fact that
DLookup("[Mail]", "[Kunde]", "[Kunde Nr] =5") worked!

Is Kunde Nr a lookup field? (i.e.: did you use the Lookup Field wizard to
create it?) This is one of the reasons why most of us vehemently dislike
lookup fields: they don't store what you think they do.

I will remember copy-and-paste next time, if any.

In the immediate window shows [Kunde Nr] = Jane
And this is the right name from the record, I wil send mail to.




Douglas J. Steele skrev:

Okay, perhaps stWho doesn't contain what you think it does.

Add a Debug statement in your code:

stWhere = "[Kunde Nr] = " & stWho
Debug.Print stWhere
varTo = DLookup("[Mail]", "[Kunde]", stWhere)

Once you've invoked the code, go to the Immediate window (Ctrl-G) and
see
what it's printed there.

Yes and it still "[Kunde Nr] =". I just forget to change it here,
(done

Douglas J. Steele skrev:
You said you used the following in the Immediate window:

Kunde Nr - Tal (Numeric) =Key
Fornavn - Tekst (Text)

Is Fornavn a separate field in Kunde, or is it the Kunde Nr field?

If there's a Fornavn field in Kunde, then change your DLookup to use that
field instead:

stWho = Me.Fornavn
stWhere = "[Fornavn] = '" & stWho & "'"
varTo = DLookup("Mail", "Kunde", stWhere)

If the text box Fornavn on your form is bound to the Kunde Nr field of your
recordset, then you've got some problems! You'll have to determine what the
number is that corresponds to the name, and use that number in your current
DLookup statement.

To check for lookup fields, open the table in Design mode, and select
the
Kunde Nr. Look at the bottom left of the form that appears. Switch to
the
Lookup tab. If it's got something there, you've got a lookup field.

What is actually a lookup field and how can I check it?
Everything is create manualy. No wizard is used.
I made a copy from somewhere on the internet and just correct it to
fit
with my DB.

I've tryed the debug on varTo :
varTo = DLookup("[Mail]", "[Kunde]", stWhere)
Debug.Print varTo
It came out emty in the immediate window
Don't know if you can use that to anything.


Douglas J. Steele skrev:
But Kunde Nr is a numeric field: you proved this by the fact that
DLookup("[Mail]", "[Kunde]", "[Kunde Nr] =5") worked!

Is Kunde Nr a lookup field? (i.e.: did you use the Lookup Field
wizard
to
create it?) This is one of the reasons why most of us vehemently
dislike
lookup fields: they don't store what you think they do.

Wow!!! Now something happend.
Outlook open and the mail adress shows in the "to" field. Ready to
send.
But, there is always a but. Some of the record returns a NULL in varTo
And the "To" field in Outlook is emty.
I use Debug.Print varTo
Any ide why?

Both fields are separate in Kunde and none of them is bound.

Douglas J. Steele skrev:
Is Fornavn a separate field in Kunde, or is it the Kunde Nr field?

If there's a Fornavn field in Kunde, then change your DLookup to use that
field instead:

stWho = Me.Fornavn
stWhere = "[Fornavn] = '" & stWho & "'"
varTo = DLookup("Mail", "Kunde", stWhere)

If the text box Fornavn on your form is bound to the Kunde Nr field of your
recordset, then you've got some problems! You'll have to determine what the
number is that corresponds to the name, and use that number in your current
DLookup statement.

Only call SendObject when you have an e-mail address for the individual:

If Not IsNull(varTo) Then
DoCmd.SendObject , acFormatHTML, varTo, , , acReport, stDocName, ,-1
End If
