    Yes, reference Outlook in Access' reference library, create objects to be instantiated as an Outlook Email. Interact with Objects. Another option is CDO.

    Here is an example of interacting with Outlook using late binding, where referencing the library is not needed.

    Sure. Try Google MSACCESS EMAIL Body FROM database

    You didn't mention Outlook, but here's a link http://www.blueclaw-db.com/access_em...nd_outlook.htm

    Thank you, but second option seems to be too advanced for me.

    You mean CDO is too advanced? What have you tried and where are you stuck?

    You do not have to add an attachment using DoCmd.
