Sending report from Access 2019 using a html template from Outlook [duplicate]
I am trying to open an Outlook 2010 email template with Excel. I get the following error:
"Run-time error '-2147287038 (80030002)':
Cannot open file:
C:\My\Path\MyTemplate.oft. The file may not exist, you may not have permission to open it, or it may be open in another program. Right-click the folder that contains the file, and then click Properties to check your permissions for the folder."
The file exists (in the right place), I checked permissions (as far as I know how), and the file is not open.
Sub Mail_experiment()
Dim OutApp As Outlook.Application
Dim OutMail As Outlook.mailitem
Set OutApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
Set OutMail = OutApp.CreateItemFromTemplate("C:\My\Path\MyTemplate.oft")
On Error Resume Next
With OutMail
.to = "[email protected]"
.CC = ""
.BCC = ""
.Subject = "This is my Subject line"
.Send
End With
On Error GoTo 0
Set OutMail = Nothing
Set OutApp = Nothing
End Sub
"I tried my code on a different computer and it worked. I went back and changed the file name of my template, as the previous name was in all capitals (shouldn't matter, right?). I got a message about needing to be an administrator to do this, which I thought was strange since this is my personal home computer. However, when I clicked "continue" it went ahead and changed the name. Now it works. – David Elphee Sep 14 '14 at 13:23"
