2nd Post - SendObject Question

[MJatAflac]

I am using the SendObject method to send an email to a "resource" letting
them know that they have just been assigned to a task. This works great but
I'm curious to know whether I can turn off the warning that pops up warning
the user that the system is trying to automatically send an email. Also, is
it possible to send the message FROM someone other than the user who is
currently signed on. I tried changing the from attribute in the sendobject
method but this seems to make no difference. I would like the mail to be sent
by an EMail ID that represents the system that's generating the message IE:
(e-mail address removed).

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance,

m

email warning - This question has been asked before. if you type in
"warning" in the search facility there are several topics on this subject.
One subject has a link to a freeware tool which will supress the warning.

The other questiona I am unsure of.

The warning is coming from your version of Outlook and there is no easy way to
eliminate it except to NOT use Outlook. In an Exchange server environment the
Exchange administrator can make changes that remove it, but you cannot do so on
the client. There is a free utilty that will automatically detect the prompt
and answer [Yes] for you.

SendObject has no facility for changing the From argument. Using automation to
control Outlook or CDO allow you to do this, but you would have to have
permissions to do so on the Exchange server.

What exactly are you sending using SendObject? It is entirely possible
to use VBA running from within Access to create an Outlook Item
including TaskItems.
