What I’m trying to do is have a button which when pressed will clear out a field then bring up Mail (Outlook or whatever) for the user to input the body, then click send. The From would be specified already. I can probably do this with some ugly code from inside Epicor, but it would be nice if Epi…

@MLamkin - Turns out to be super simple… private void btnMail_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs args) { // ** Place Event Handling Code Here ** string s = "mailto:ckrusen@matcor.com"; //TO: s = s + "?subject=This is the subject"; s = s + "&cc=someone_else@example.com"; s = s + "&body…

You can set a main menu item to launch an external process, and then code a button to execute that main menu item.

Running outlook.exe /c ipm.note from a command line (or Window’s Run dialog), launches a new blank email message. I’d bet there are command line options for including the values for fields like: TO:, CC:,Subject, etc… And there are topics on her for launching an external process without having to …

I will look more into this, thank you :slight_smile: I’ll mark it as solved if I can figure it out. We just need the one or two people using the screen to be able to start an email chain, and they aren’t very technical people, so copy and paste really won’t work for them.

And the web way is to create an HTML mailto link. This will pull up whatever email client defined so it will work with Outlook, Outlook Online (365), Gmail, whatever is defined as the default email client for Internet links. mailto mailto is a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) scheme for…

I think that’s the way I’d prefer to do it, I can’t count on a specific location for Outlook. Plus I know some people (myself for example) that don’t use it :slight_smile: It’s too bad I can’t just create the link in Epicor itself to send the mail with a click. I can probably make a fixed page an…

If I type IExplore.exe at the command prompt, it doesn’t find it. I would guess you would need to have that in the PATH before that would work.

A long time ago @josecgomez did a post on printing to pdf and emailing in E9. It used the outlook interop, old school now I guess, but it worked.

Epicor already has this functionality with something called Document Sender . They acquired it with the DotNetIT acquisition and I was always under the impression that it was written by @Edge himself. It would be awesome for them to update this for their Kinetic UI…

[image] MLamkin: If I type IExplore.exe As per Microsoft, IExplorer should be removed from every windows system (security issues). It’s been replaced with Edge. If your computer is new-ish, it probably only has edge.
