Re: Add recipient email to 'ActiveDocument.SendMail'

I'd like to send the document AS the email - instead of attaching
it.......any ideas ?
Ultimately I'd like a drop down in the document with a list of departments -
when the user selects a department - it refers to a look-up in the code and
selects the appropriate email address (only 8 or so email addresses).
Out anti-spam is also quarantining the sent email.....as it has a base64.txt
attachment ?

Macro stops at this line indicating error

Dim oOutlookApp As Outlook.Application

" Compile error: User defined type item not defined"

I have this attached to a submit button as an on click function

If you are using Outlook you can use something like the following

Sub SendDocumentAsAttachment()
Dim bStarted As Boolean
Dim oOutlookApp As Outlook.Application
Dim oItem As Outlook.MailItem
On Error Resume Next
If Len(ActiveDocument.Path) = 0 Then 'Document has not been saved
ActiveDocument.Save 'so save it
End If
'see if Outlook is running and if so turn your attention there
Set oOutlookApp = GetObject(, "Outlook.Application")
If Err <> 0 Then 'Outlook isn't running
'So fire it up
Set oOutlookApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
bStarted = True
End If
'Open a new e-mail message
Set oItem = oOutlookApp.CreateItem(olMailItem)
With oItem 'and add the detail to it
.To = someone@xxxxxxxxxxxxx 'send to this address
.Subject = "New subject" 'This is the message subject
.Body = "See attached document" ' This is the message body text
.Attachments.Add Source:=ActiveDocument.FullName,
Type:=olByValue .Send
'**********************************
'If you want to view the message before it goes
'change the line above from .Send to .Display
'Otherwise the message is sent straight to the Outbox
'and if you have Outlook set to send mail immediately,
'it will simply be Sent
'with no obvious sign that Outlook has operated.
'Apart from the copy in the Outlook Sent folder
'**********************************
End With
If bStarted Then 'If the macro started Outlook, stop it again.
oOutlookApp.Quit
End If
'Clean up
Set oItem = Nothing
Set oOutlookApp = Nothing
End Sub
