E-mailing individual pages from RB.

edited March 2007 in End User
Hi,

I've inherited a system that I need to enable to e-mail our customers using
an existing report.

A little background:

When processing on the system it is possible to have a printed letter
created informing our customers that something is waiting collection.
These letters are created from a single query and are one report. Obviously
they are then mailed manually. (There can be letters for multiple recipients
in one print run)
I want to be able to e-mail the relevant page to an e-mail address for each
customer.

I understand I could just write a new method from scratch but I just wanted
to know if it was possible this way.

Thanks.

Jeff

    Hi Jeff,

    ReportBuilder 10 includes the ability to email an exported report directly
    from the previewer, explorer, or in code. There however is not built-in
    feature to send individual pages of a report as separete emails. One option
    may be to generate single page reports based on a search condition and email
    them one by one using a loop in code. For information on how the new email
    feature works, see the TppEmail, TppProducer.SendMail, and TppEmailSettings
    topics in the RBuilder help.

    Also take a look at demo 110 located in the \RBuilder\Demos\1. Reports\...
    directory.
