Carolyn, I have a number of nightly "Access Batch Jobs" that create many reports in PDF format and automatically e-mail these PDF files to select employees. When I first started this project, I tried to use Outlook but ran into many time consuming issues. I then did some research and started to experiment with a free command line e-mail utility called Blat. Blat worked Okay, but when I ran into some problems, I spent a lot of time and could not get good answers from anyone, so I decided to try the free trial version of a command line e-mailer called Febooti. I had immediate success with Febooti and decided to purchase the product (less than $100). For the past two years, Febooti has worked very well for us. It was money well spent for us. You might not be interested in switching horses, but I thought that my experience might be useful to you.
