Hi,

I am wondering how to send an email to a list of people in an Access
database. The email should have a message in the body, as well as a Word
attachment.

I know how to do this using a mail merge in Word where I can send the email
using the Word doc as the email body message or attach this Word doc to the
email, and I can select the recipients from an Access db. I want to be able
to do both - have a message in the body of the email and attach a Word doc.
I don't see an option to do this when doing a mail merge in Word using an
access db.

Is there a way I can do this?

Thanks!

mail merge doesn't support attachments, but you might want to try this
method:
