Hi,
I'm using VB5 and when I try to send an email message (with an attachment) I receive the following message:
A program is trying to automatically send an email on your behalf ....
I have to press OK in order to send it, and it does send the message, but I would like to get rid of this message. I've looked at some other solutions, but they are related to VB.Net or VB6, and I'm usinf VB 5
Any help would be appreciated. Here is the code I'm using :
Dim oOApp As Outlook.Application
Dim oOMail As Outlook.MailItem
Set oOApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Appl
Set oOMail = oOApp.CreateItem(olMailIte
With oOMail
.To = "jbaeza@cr911.com"
.Subject = "Testing on how to send emails from the computer"
.Body = "This is a test"
.Attachments.Add "c:\series.txt", olByValue, 1
.Send
End With
Thanx for your help

Also, more importantly, is put some error handling into your code. If the user *doesn't* click ok, and denies the program access to outlook, some line of you rcode will fail, probably the send() function call. Make sure it pops up a message that says "You must allow outlook to send the email message!" or something similar if it fails.
There is ann addin for Microsoft Outlook that can suppress this message at http://www.mapilab.com
But please note that this is not a recommended solution to apply at user computers.
It does the trick but do understand that the message you get is there for a good reason !

You cannot get rid of this message using any standard procedures, since it is a security warning from Outlook to prevent viruses from exploiting it. It will be difficult, and anything you code that DOES work, will most likely be circumvented in future versions on Outlook.
My suggestion if you really want to get rid of it, is try and catch when the window appears, and make the program emulate clicking the OK button.
Look at this sample for an example of getting the active window:

And look at this sample for an example of emulating the keyboard and mouse from vb6:
