Distributing Total Access Emailer
Do you want to include email capabilities to applications you
distribute to others? No problem! The Professional Version of Total
Access Emailer includes a programmatic interface to run email
blasts programmatically from your applications, and distribute them to
all your users Royalty-Free!
Best of all, it's extremely easy to use since all the complicated
email blast specifications (data source, message format, field
references, send options, etc.) can be defined and tested through the
interactive Wizard. Programmatically, you simply need to reference the
ID of the specifications.
Add Email to Your Access Application
Just follow these three simple steps to give your users the power
to run email blasts at the touch of a button:
- Define and test your email blast using the interactive Wizard
interface.
- Add a reference to the Total Access Emailer library from your
database.
- Add the Total Access Emailer function and reference the email ID you
created in step 1.
For instance, all you need to add to your program to run email
blast number 25 is this function call:
- TotalAccessEmailer(25, False, "", "", True, True)
The function returns a blank string if successful or an error
string if a problem was encountered.

call, visit

Distributing the Total Access Emailer Runtime
The Professional Version of Total Access Emailer includes a small
setup program that distributes and registers the Total Access Emailer
runtime. This program automatically installs and registers the Total
Access Emailer redistributable files, along with its dependencies.
Deployment couldn't be easier- just run the setup on your users'
machines, and they're ready to use your application!
A separate
runtime version is available for your Microsoft
Access version:
- Access 2007
- Access 2003
- Access 2002/XP
- Access 2000
- Access 97
The runtime for Microsoft Access 2002/XP or Access 2003 works with
database files in Access 2000 and Access 2002/2003 formats.
Microsoft Access 2007 Support
The runtime library in Total Access Emailer 2007 is in ACCDE format
which supports any Access database supported by Access 2007 (MDB,
ACCDB, and ADP) and the features of Access 2007 (such as reports as
attached PDF files). A digitally signed Access 2003 runtime library in
MDE format is available for distribution to Access 2003 users, who of
course would not be able to use the Access 2007 features.
