    Attach Report to Email

    Hi,



    I have a report that I would like to attach to an email automatically. Is that possible?

    Code:
     
    Private Sub Report_Page()
        Dim DailyReport As String
        
        DoCmd.OutputTo acOutputReport, DailyReport, _
        acFormatRTF, "DailyReport.rtf", True
        DoCmd.Save acReport, "DailyReport"    'this line doesn't work
        
        Dim iMsg, cdoConfig As Object
        Dim sch, As String
             
        sch = "http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/"
        Set cdoConfig = CreateObject("CDO.Configuration")
        
        With cdoConfig.Fields
            .Item(sch & "sendusing") = 2
            .Item(sch & "smtpserver") = "Exchange._________.com" 'company name removed
            .Item(sch & "smtpserverport") = 25 
            .update
        End With
        
        Set iMsg = CreateObject("CDO.Message")
        With iMsg
            Set .Configuration = cdoConfig
            .To = "________.com" 'email removed
            .CC = ""
            .BCC = ""
            .From = "__________.com" 'email removed
            .Subject = "Weekly Training Updates"
            .TextBody = "Please see the attached document for training updates"
            .Addattachment "C:/" & savename    'this line doesn't work
            .Send
        End With
        
        Kill "C:/" & savename 'this line doesn't work
    
        Set iMsg = Nothing
        Set cdoConfig = Nothing
        
        DoCmd.Close acReport, "Daily Report"
    End Sub
    if i remove all the lines that i have commented "this line doesn't work" then the email is sent. So I know the email code works, but I can't attach my report. Any suggestions?

    thanks,

    teebumble

    Maybe this will help, reverse the / to \, like C:\

    I changed the direction of the \. Thanks!

    But my .addattachment still doesn't work. I also tried .attachment.add ("______"), .addattachment = "_______", .attachment = " ".

    Any suggestions on adding attachment?

    Thanks!

    Checked my code again, syntax that works for me is:

    .Attachments.add

    thanks June7. It was actually my fault. I typed the wrong path, so it was not in the correct location.

    THANKS AGAIN!

    Wanted to delete my comments, but had to replace it with this.
