Annoying "virus" alert when using code to send mail
 

I am getting an alert when using the below code to send mail from Excel.
How do I prevent this alert?

Thanks for your help...

The alert reads:
A program is trying to automatically send e-mail on your behalf.
Do you want to Allow this.
If this is unexpected, it may be a virus and you should choose "No".

Sub SendMyMail()
Dim subj As String
Application.DisplayAlerts = False

If MsgBox("Ready to send?", vbYesNo + vbQuestion) = vbYes Then
subj = Sheets(2).Cells(7, 3) & " Quote "
subj = subj & InputBox("Add to your Subject Line", "email Subject")
subj = WorksheetFunction.Proper(subj)

'Emails the activeworkbook'
ActiveWorkbook.SendMail ", _
Subject:=subj, ReturnReceipt:=True
End If

Application.DisplayAlerts = True
End Sub

Annoying "virus" alert when using code to send mail
 

Ron,

Thank you for your prompt response! You confirmed my worst fear -
having to disable the function in Outlook. Don't want to do that!

Your code specifies that the user must be connected to the internet. My
users are salesmen (on laptops) and they may or may not have internet
fired up. (I'll have to check this out to make sure.)

Tried the code in 97 & 2k and got an error on ".send"
(was on line) (Windows 2k)
Run Time Erro '-2147220960 (80040220)':
The "SendUsing" configuration value is invalid.

Both versions do not recognize "send".

Any suggestions?

Ron,

Thanks, again! But now the problem is having my users download and
install something - that won't work (unfortunately).

Guess I'll just have them click the "Yes" button...

Outlook Express is part of Internet Explorer. If they have IE 5.0 or later,
then they already have a relatively current (and stable) version of Outlook
Express.
