EMAIL with LOTUS SCRIPT
Good day members,
I have the following code, that USED to work perfectly well, then it stopped... The issue I have is when I have multiple people to be mailed in the one field... Only the first person gets it or none...
' Collect the Names of the people to send to (THIS IS WHERE I THINK I HAVE AN ISSUE AND NEEDS HELP PLEASE)

CountSend = Ubound(SendTo) + 1
Redim SendTo(CountSend)

Also, check what SendTo is populating in the end. Is it having one value or multi value as an array.
Check using debugger. Alternatively, you can send each email in the for loop.

Hello,
extend the second parameter for the Split() function and add more characters for what the field value should be splitted.
Like this:
tmpSendTo = Split(doc.getFirstItem("sa

Give also an example how your values for the field "sales_person" look alike.

Nothing was populated... it was blank... I only get the mail as the BCC receipient...
however, I think I might have issue here
My field where I capture the names of the people is called "notify" I somehow by passes this and dont know how to correct it... when I send out the memo I somehow messes things up again... could you check that portion out for me??

The field name is 'notify' that could contain a mail group or multiple people

I ran Debug and the values does show as follows
VALUES
[0] "Christo Du Toit",....... VARIANT
[1] "CN=Admin-JNB/OU=XXX/O=xxx
[2] "CN=Willie Boshoff/OU=XXX/O=xxxxxxxxx
then under PARENT it shows
"Christo Du Toit;CN=Admin-XXX/OU=XXX/O

Hi Experts... I changed the code slightly and managed to get ONE name specified in 'notify' field sent a mail... See the following :) I moved the for loop down to the memo section and change the "wrong declared field" to the correct being 'notify' The ONLY remaining thing now is that it still doesnt show all the names...

Updating Points
In your original code use below:
Dim Countsend As Integer
For Index = 0 To Ubound(tmpSendTo)
On Error Resume Next
If (tmpSendTo(Index) <> session.UserName) Then
CountSend = Ubound(SendTo) + 1
Redim SendTo(CountSend)
SendTo(CountSend) = tmpSendTo(Index)
End If
Next
Dim Countsend As Integer
For Index = 0 To Ubound(tmpSendTo)
On Error Resume Next
If (tmpSendTo(Index) <> session.UserName) Then
CountSend = Ubound(SendTo) + 1
Redim SendTo(CountSend)
SendTo(CountSend) = tmpSendTo(Index)
End If
Next
Else use below code:
Dim SendTo() As array
Dim Countsend As Integer
Countsend = 0
For Index = 0 To Ubound(tmpSendTo)
On Error Resume Next
If (tmpSendTo(Index) <> session.UserName) Then
Redim SendTo(CountSend)
SendTo(CountSend) = tmpSendTo(Index)
CountSend = CountSend + 1
End If
Next
Call docMemo.Send(False , FullTrim(SendTo ))
Dim SendTo() As array
Dim Countsend As Integer
Countsend = 0
For Index = 0 To Ubound(tmpSendTo)
On Error Resume Next

Redim SendTo(CountSend)
SendTo(CountSend) = tmpSendTo(Index)
CountSend = CountSend + 1
