[AccessD] Email problem. Again

No, Max.  We ran into problems because CDO has nothing to do with Access.  It used to be installed with Outlook, but no more.  Several versions of Windows back it stopped being installed at all unless the user specified it.  It isn't about Access, any version, it's about the fact that not every machine has CDO installed.  You might be lucky but we weren't, especially since we have clients all over the world and Outlook isn't always there anyhow.  We had to find a method that would work regardless of whether or not Outlook was installed or CDO was installed.  Rocky seems to have the same issues, which you are completely ignoring in favor of what has worked for you.  YMMV

Exactly, Charlotte.  Years ago.  And it is still here after all that  worry!

I was going  to stop developing in A2k3  years ago thinking it would be
around much longer  and not only is  A2k3 still here  but people are  still
developing in A97!

CDO will be around as long as A2k3 databases are around.   And if  the day
comes, handle it  then.
I have been  using  it  for years and  before that cdos.

But, I also use minirelay and send  directly from my PC.
