Hi All
I’ve been going round in circles with this one and changed things so many times I don’t know if I’m coming or going! So any pointers or help would be very much appreciated.
I am trying to send out a PDF invoice attached to an email. The PDF path and filename is stored in the variable $FileName and the text field ‘Invoice Path’. The path to the invoice files is in 'Invoice' directory on the desktop. They are being created correctly as I can open them up using windows run and the data from the $FileName variable
I’m pretty sure it’s something to do with having to add in filewin: somewhere, as the “Invoice Path” field has the additional forward slash in it but have tried putting filewin in lots of different places with an without quotes but to no avail. If I remove the PCEM_AddAttachment line the email without the attachment is sent to outlook.
As I say any help would be gratefully appreciated.
