Excel macro using email - Security warning from Outlook
Hi,
I have been using an Excel macro that automatically sends distinct data by email to 100 different vendors, one after the other. Recently, there is a message that pops up: A program is trying to automatically send an email on your behalf. Do you want to allow this? YES NO HELP Is there a way to disable this question? Or else, this means I have to stay in front of my computer , and answer YES a hundred times. I have Excel 2000 & Outlook 2000 Thank you André |

Hi
I would have thought that this always showed up? It is there to stop the spread of viruses and cannot be bypassed within Excel VBA. There is another (not usually installed) library that does allow mails without warnings, but I forget the name (CDO rings a bell?). This might require a bit of recoding of your macro. If your users are all getting the same message you could put all of them in the same address field and post once? regards Paul Andre Croteau wrote: Hi, I have been using an Excel macro that automatically sends distinct data by email to 100 different vendors, one after the other.

Excel macro using email - Security warning from Outlook
Hi Paul,
The computer I use at work has the message of the restriction. The computer I have at home does not have that restriction (maybe I should update with the recent security patches ...) The macro in question manipulates data and sends distinct meassages to distinct vendors. The problem is that it stops the macro to ask that question for each of the emails to be sent. I need to stay in front of the computer and click YES a hundred times. I will investigate the "CDO library" you mentioned. thanks André wrote in message oups.com...
