Thought that may be the case

I though of opening a new window within the database with a mockup of the
email layout and using global fields as the email text and subject to copy
into a send mail script with the no dialog box ticked

then they would have no choice to send once they clicked send

may have to go down one of those routes


cheers for the idea

Hi Craig-
I had a similar problem, and outside of plugins or VB scripting I
don't think there is a way to automatically verify that a user has
sent an email. What I have my solution do is pop up a dialog to ask
the user if the email has been successfully sent, and then mark a flag
in a field. Works OK.

Morning all

I am just working a client management/library system and I am wanting to
know if there is a way of recording if an email has been sent with the
send
email script.

I know I can add to the end of a field a piece of text saying email made
by
"user" on the "date". but I cant tell once the email has been created.
i.e.
the no dialog option is unticked, if the user then sends the mail

if the users closes the email without sending is there a way to tell??

Cheers
Craig

I donnu, but couldn't you create a field (EmailSent) and then as last step
of the script that actualy sent the mail use a setfield to put a x in this
field. I have no experience with sending email through filemaker, but this
doesn't seem to bee unreasonable...

Keep well, Ursus
