I need to make my form email the data of a new record to a given address. The problem is that IP 2003 requires Outlook 2003 to be the default mail client in order to do this. I have found forum posts offering workarounds using javascript, however, none of them seem to work. it doesnt help that i have very little coding knowledge, and am not sure if i'm even pasting the code in the correct place
function OpenMailEnvelop(subject, to)
{
try
{
var oEnvelope = Application.ActiveWindow.MailEnvelope;
oEnvelope.Subject = subject;
oEnvelope.To = to;
oEnvelope.Visible = true;
return true;
}
catch(exception)
{
return false;
}
}
function btnSomeButton::OnClick(eventObj)
{
OpenMailEnvelop("this is the subject", "[email protected]")
i've just been pasting all of this where the code for the button goes, and changing nothing except the "btnSomeButton" reference, and the email address/subject.
any help would be very much appreciated.
