  • How to Use the SendObject Command to Email an Invoice or Other Report in Microsoft Access
    In this Microsoft Access tutorial I'm going to teach you how to use the SendObject command to email an invoice or any other report with just one click
    James from Cheyenne, Wyoming (a Platinum Member) asks: Is it possible to send an invoice directly to a customer by just clicking on a button on the order form itself. Right now I've got a click to open the invoice report and then click the send the button and then copy and paste their email address and type in a little message and a subject and it's just a big pain. Can all of this be automated?
    Silver Members and up get access to an Extended Cut of this video. Members will learn how to customize the invoice so that the attachment has a custom file name, check to make sure there is an email address for this customer before sending, and deal with the error if the user cancels sending.

    Thanks for the video, Richard. I didn't know about the "SendObject" command. I've always done it using the "olMailItem" method. 🙂

    Hi Richard, I am making weekly payments to our suppliers, and I am using access database to run queries to generate payment remittances to individual suppliers in excel format. I want to run a macro to send these remittances by email via outlook.

    all thumbs up to the BEST ACCESS TEACHER RICHARD. Thank you for your other valuable tutorial. Already subscribed. Hope the others do the same. Question: How can I send the emails to specific group of clients (clients group is named after their residential city) Ex: Tampa, Buffalo, Westminster? thanks Richard

    Expanding on this, I would like 1 command to send an invoice to the designated email for multiple companies. Example - I have 10 companies and would like to email their invoice out at the end of the month. Can this be done?

    Great tutorials. Question about sendobject...
    I have been using this exact code for many years with my default email client, windows Live mail. I have now installed and made Outlook my default (set as default app now in windows). The problem is access still wants to open WLM. Does sendobject not work with outlook, or am I missing another setting to default to outlook?
    I have one more using still using WLM, so ideally I would like the code to work with both outlook and WLM.

    Any way to have the report in the body of the email instead of as an attachment?

      Oh, I forgot I made this comment. I actually figured it out with some research over the internet.

    Great Video! But when I tried to use the sendObject command it opens my Lotus notes email which we had when I made the database and was working when we were using lotus notes but, we recently switch to Outlook and M365 office. I updated my default email to outlook in windows and rebooted my PC but still wants to open Lotus notes . I am also trying the other option of using the outlook.application method to see if that will work but the the SendObject is less code. I tried looking for a default email setting in Access but could not find anything.
