You can automate using VBscript, but there are challenges. I started with a script, graduated to full blown vb.net application. It works well enough for 20 people over 100 sends per day, click one button on a sales order, looks at the windows login for user (could easily look at Sage), sends email with PDF attached to customer and copies the 'sender'. I am looking at upgrading to a 'user database' because we have multiple locations, and want phone/fax numbers per location to display on the quote/confirmation. Database is in access, and it works, but since I am an inside sales person first 90% and everything else, including programmer, last 10%, it has been quite a while. I wanted to get away from PDF attachments, and embed the data in HTML body email. Cuts down on spam false positives. I would be willing to share what I have so far with someone who could take it to the last steps. Sorry to ramble on here, I stumbled on this post because I was trying to see if anyone had added USER information in UDF/UDT in Sage 100, as opposed to using an external database. I do not want to hijack this post, I will start a new thread asking this question. To answer sevendogzero.... yes it is possible, and I am willing to share details on how I did it. Thanks. -Mike
