I am using EFD to input trouble ticket data. I have modified COMMANDS.BAS
to create a text file containing the form data and boilerplate which will be
used by a downstream program to generate the trouble ticket. I now have the
problem of automatically mailing the text file to the other software.
I have tried "sendmail.exe", but find it won't run on Alpha. The right way
to do this is via MAPI calls, but I have no MAPI experience and no manuals for
MAPI from within Visual Basic.
Can anyone point me to some VB code which will read in a text file and
send the mail along, just something I can use as sample or guide?
What was supposed to be a 2 day effort is going into it's 7th day...
Thanks for any pointers you might provide,
Al

You could try useing BLAT. That's a simple SMTP command line emailer. Available in Intel and Alpha. mike | |||||
| 861.2 | Use custom MAPI control from VB? | TURRIS::twuwuv.zko.dec.com::hower | Thu Feb 06 1997 15:01 | 6 | |
If you're using VB 4.0, you should be able to use the MAPI controls
(seeTools/Custom Controls.../MS Mapi Controls) to send the file.
Help "MAPI" also points to a sample MAPI application. It's "simple
MAPI", but should work for simply sending files.

If you still need this write me at [email protected] for MAPI samples in VB. I am not a programmer by trade. My codes ugly, but it does EVERYTHING you mentioned plus can walk public folder trees and read their contents. [email protected] Tal. | |||||
