Thanks to Gisle Forseth for that excellent sample program using MS CDO to send email! Doesn't get any easier than that. I would like to send an attachment with this email method, but I am having trouble. I tried putting this code in right after the MODIFY NEW-MAIL statement:

MODIFY NEW-MAIL @AttachFile
("c:\\requests.pdf",
"requests.pdf").

I am now getting the following error message when I run my program:

"Class is not licensed for use"

Has anyone tried sending attachments using Gisle's code?

I sent the object simply to see if you're system gets the same reaction, here is the source.

Of course my CDO is different from yours, so I am not able to test this.
But I found an example on MSDN that illustrates how to add an attachment, here is what they do:

In working storage add:

  77 CountOfFiles PIC 9(3).


In procedure division, substitute your attachment with the following:

INQUIRE MyMessage AttachmentCount IN CountOfFIles.
MODIFY MyMessage AttachmentIndex = CountOfFiles.
MODIFY MyMessage
AttachmentPathName = "c:\\bks\\msemail.cbl"
AttachmentName = "c:\\bks\\msemail.cbl"
AttachmentType = mapData | should be defined in def file, but is numeric value 0
AttachmentPosition = 1.


Here is the url if you would like to read this yourself:

One thing that came to my mind is... Since CDO is ment to run in the security context of a web server, it might be that it will not allow to access files in directories that are not granted for the webserver to see...
