    email contact button


    I would like to create a button that opens a new email message automatically addressed to the correct contact. Is there a way to do this? I'm thinking the way it would work since each contact can have multiple emails, is just have a couple different buttons (one for each email address box) and which ever one you click opens the new mail message to that address. Your help is greatly appreciated!

    I'm really not finding anything that is applicable to office 2007, or exactly what I want to do. I'm terrible at vba so that could be contributing to my frustration. I don't want it to actually send the email. I just want it to open the new email message window with it already addressed to whichever button I click. And now access won't let me add anything to my forms!!! What is going on!!!??? Someone please help! It won't let me place any form controls.

    I don't know what is causing your current issue but everything in the link I posted should be applicable to ac2007 as well.

Please reply to this thread with any new information or opinions.
