Sending Macro-Formatted Word Documents via Email

[Lance Sulton]

Greetings!

Here's my conundrum: I'd like to use VBA in Word 2000 to
peruse a directory of files, open, format and save each
file, and then send each file as an attachment to unique
recipients. All this WITHOUT auto-launching our email
client (Lotus Notes); I assume directly hitting the SMTP
server would do.

Can anyone point me in the direction of any resources
where I could get a clue as to how to structure this
macro? Any and all help would be most appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Lance,

I don't know about the Lotus Notes thing, but see the article "How to send
an email from Word using VBA" at:

Please post any further questions or followup to the newsgroups for the
benefit of others who may be interested. Unsolicited questions forwarded
directly to me will only be answered on a consulting basis.

Hope this helps
