Using MAPI

[Lance McGonigal]

Hi all. Thanks in advance for your help.

I'm trying to use MAPI to send a simple message with an attachment. I'm
using Access 2003 and XP. I have the code in place but when I try to
execute the code I get a run-time error 48, can't find file MAPI.DLL. I did
a search on the box and MAPI.DLL is in the win/system32 folder and on the
common programs folder.

I don't have exchange server. I just need a simple way to send a
notification via pop3 mail from the database.

Thanks All.

The message is likely to be just a generic error message.
Probably not a good idea to have two copies of MAPI.DLL:
you should check the version numbers and rename or delete
one copy. It may be that one copy is the wrong version
and won't load correctly.

How did this work out? I am currently facing a similar situation. I
need to batch email (with an attachment) from Access 2003, on a
workstation using Eudora.

Thank you in advance for the feedback.
