BLAT - Access writes a report to a txt file. BLAT supports as part of its command line specifing a txt file for the SMTP addresses. There are other 3rd party mailers as well.
Access also supports export to CSV and XLS. Those can be imported into Outlook. You have several good suggestions. Take them, do some research [1] and which one best suits your needs.

Some comments from your suggestions on my Distribution Lists question: -Mail merge with Word does not send HTML mail. It converts it to plain text. I don't know if it will convert if sent as an attachment, but I don't want to send an attachment. -I need to import addresses from an external database (Access). I don't see how to import names to a distribution list in the GAL or elsewhere from sources like these. Only see things like importing from Outlook Express. -Copy and paste into the BCC is a good idea, but I anticipate my list growing. What if I can't paste all those. I also looked at Blat and it doesn't seem to have external database file access. Thanks for you attention. _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
