>Anyone know how to get Outlook to send an email on a given date from Foxpro?
There are at least a couple of approaches:
1. Have a VFP program running continuously. Within VFP, determine if it's now the time to send the message. You could use a Timer control, or a loop with a Sleep API call for this (use a long timer interval e.g. a minute or longer so your program doesn't hog CPU).
After the desired date/time is reached, and the message sent, the program can keep running, or can terminate itself.
2. Create a VFP program that only knows how to send a mail immediately. Then, use the Windows Task Scheduler to schedule when this program will be run.
