ajshamamian Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 I'm trying to generate email that appears in a similar or (hopefully) exact format as one of my layout designs, complete with information from a specific record and I'm having problems writing a script for this action. Does anybody know a good way to generate this type of email? -Armen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aaa Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 Hi, Armen! Email your file or copy of file with only one record, which you want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajshamamian Posted May 23, 2008 Author Share Posted May 23, 2008 Actually, I'm trying to set up a notification system to send record information to people who don't necessarily have a copy of FileMaker. I've been experimenting with making a calculation field to display combinations of text and field values but I'm not having any luck. Do you think there's really a solution for this? -A Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AHunter3 Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 Set Variable [$pdfpath, Get(DesktopPath & "/Attach.PDF"] If [Get(SystemPlatform = 2] ... Set Variable [$pdfpath, "filewin:/"& Middle ($pdfpath, 2, Length ($pdfpath))] End If Save Records as PDF [current record, no dialog, $pdfpath] Send Mail [To=YourTable::emailAddress Subject = "whatever" Attachment=$pdfpath] that ought to work. They'd have Acrobat Viewer or Apple Preview, wouldn't they? (who doesn't?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
