SendObject Email

Swordfish

Hello

I am trying to figure out what I might be doing wrong. I am trying to send
an email to a name selected with a Combo Box which has a query/table noted
below. Additionally, I was trying to get the field information from DataTrak
Number to enter into the message. When I click on the Email icon nothing
happens. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.


Private Sub Lotus_Notes_Email_Click()
Dim LResponse As Integer

LResponse = MsgBox("Do you wish to continue?", vbYesNo, "Continue")

If LResponse = vbYes Then

Dim SendTo As String, MySubject As String, MyMessage As String

SendTo = DLookup("[EmailAddress],""tblBenefitsEmployee")
MySubject = "Production Assigned"
MyMessage = "Datatrak Number:" & Me.Datatrak_Number & vbCr
DoCmd.SendObject acSendNoObject, , , SendTo, , , MySubject, MyMessage, True

End If
End Sub

SendObject works with MAPI compliant email clients. Lotus Notes is not a
MAPI compliant client. You may get a Notes email to work using something
like:

Public Sub SendNotesMail(Subject As String, Attachment As String, Recipient
As String, BodyText As String, SaveIt As Boolean)
'Set up the objects required for Automation into lotus notes
Dim Maildb As Object 'The mail database
Dim UserName As String 'The current users notes name
Dim MailDbName As String 'THe current users notes mail database name
Dim MailDoc As Object 'The mail document itself
Dim AttachME As Object 'The attachment richtextfile object
Dim Session As Object 'The notes session
Dim EmbedObj As Object 'The embedded object (Attachment)
'Start a session to notes
Set Session = CreateObject("Notes.NotesSession")
'Get the sessions username and then calculate the mail file name
'You may or may not need this as for MailDBname with some systems you
'can pass an empty string
UserName = Session.UserName
MailDbName = Left$(UserName, 1) & Right$(UserName, (Len(UserName) -
InStr(1, UserName, " "))) & ".nsf"
'Open the mail database in notes
Set Maildb = Session.GETDATABASE("", MailDbName)
If Maildb.ISOPEN = True Then
'Already open for mail
Else
Maildb.OPENMAIL
End If
'Set up the new mail document
Set MailDoc = Maildb.CREATEDOCUMENT
MailDoc.Form = "Memo"
MailDoc.sendto = Recipient
MailDoc.Subject = Subject
MailDoc.Body = BodyText
MailDoc.SAVEMESSAGEONSEND = SaveIt
'Set up the embedded object and attachment and attach it
If Attachment <> "" Then
Set AttachME = MailDoc.CREATERICHTEXTITEM("Attachment")
Set EmbedObj = AttachME.EMBEDOBJECT(1454, "", Attachment,
"Attachment")
MailDoc.CREATERICHTEXTITEM ("Attachment")
End If
'Send the document
MailDoc.SEND 0, Recipient
'Clean Up
Set Maildb = Nothing
Set MailDoc = Nothing
Set AttachME = Nothing
Set Session = Nothing
Set EmbedObj = Nothing
End Sub

Thank you for the response Mr Meyer.
