Hi

I need some help with an area I have little experience in. I know it can be done but I just don't have the knowledge to do it. I have written a program which collects a set of responses to a questionnaire and saves them to a file. I now want to send that file as an attachment to a specific email address. I don't want to have the client having to set up SMTP addresses etc. - it all has to be invisible to the user if possible. I know I have to use MIDI functions somehow and that is about the extent of my knowledge :(

Any assistance glady accepted.....

Thanks in advance

Dennis

Thanks Paul - will work through the emailer example. I have suddenly rediscovered where the examples are hiding - lost them out of the EBDev directory :) :)

Chris, I have sent you a PM.

Regards
Dennis
