Email problem

[Hayleywart]

Woke up to an annoying problem this morning, and I am just stuck as to what may have happened. I have a database which uses the RunMenuCommand Send function to send email reports. It has always worked fine. Today I went to email a client a report, and it goes through the motions, I select pdf (as always) but it then brings up the outlook email on screen but has not packaged the report. It's just a blank email. It's never done this before. I tried rebooting the computer, still doing the same thing. I closed that database and opened a different one, and it has exactly the same problem. So I know it's a problem with Outlook/Access/my computer not the actual database.

The only thing I can think of is that the computer did update itself shutting down last night, but if that is the case then aaarrrgggh!! I don't know what to do! Any ideas?

are you sure it prepared the pdf?

does the pdf get put in a folder that for some reason the pc cannot now see

if so maybe the code fails in some way without notifying you of the error.

Thanks so much for your reply.

I tried going ahead and sending the email and Lo and behold, it does come through including the attachment.

Very strange that the attachment doesn't show up on the screen but at least it is actually there. I guess that'll have to do for now. Very bizarre!
