Just thought I'd share this in case anyone else encounters this
problem some day. I have a database that's been in use for 6 years,
the last 2 in Access 2007. We use Groupwise for mail and I've used
the sendobject command to successfully send out email's with
attachments. Last week the sendobject command quit working. No error
message, nothing. I stepped through the code and it would excecute
the sendobject command with no errors but not send the email. I
checked everything, reverted to an older copy of the front end still
would not work. I finally ran the microsoft office diagnostics and it
found one error and repaired it. It wouldn't tell me what the error
was but it fixed the problem and the sendobject now works. It would
have been nice of the diagnostics had given me a little more
information but I guess that's too much to hope for in this age of
idiot proof software.

My guess is that it wasn't an Access error, but a Windows one. If you had
Visual Studio or C++ installed, you might be able to intercept the messages
to the OS.

As it is, be thankful that the problem is solved, and don'y pay attemtion to
the man behind the curtain.

Thanks for your posting. I forget about the Microsoft Office
Diagnostics tool on the menu.
