I have a series of reports that are created by Access
2000. I send a table of hyperlinks to the reports to users
via Outlook 2000. I have HTML set in Outlook, and it
always worked using Access 97.
With 97, I was able to send emails to my users that
included hyperlinks to a series of reports located on a
LAN. Just save the new report date to the LAN, update the
hyperlink to that date, and send with an Access macro.
After conversion to Access 2000, Outlook seems to want
to send an icon instead of the raw hyperlink from the
table. When the user opens the icon, the link appears to
click.
Is there a way to get rid of this extra step that Access
97 did not have? The Access 2000 send object macros show
that it is sending HTML, as it should be, but when you run
it, and the e-mail window comes up, it shows as a text
file. Clicking at that point, to switch to HTML within
Outlook does nothing.
