automatic emails sent out?

[paul69]

I am using FP 2003 with access database...can I get an email message to be
automatically sent out on certain dates to certain emails found in that
database? If so, how do I do it?

Thanks in advance,

paul

Not unless you go to the site (say a page not accessible to others) and run some link or action script
- there is no automatic "timer" in VBscript or Access that will do it w/o user a action

As Stefan says, not with a timer.
If you have a page that's accessed daily, you could add a date field and a status
field to your database.

Then that page have a script function to check the date and status in the database,
and execute the code to send the e-mail, then mark it done for that time
period(day,week,month etc).
