SendObject isn't terrific, you have to send your file as an attachment, but it works and is not too hard to figure out and it seems to be the way MS intends you to do it. for more info and examples, look in Help on your version of Access which I believe you did not mention. Recent versions have way better help for new users and are worth the upgrade if you can swing it.
anyhow, look up 'send email' or SendObject. Also check out the sample forms and databases available for download at download.microcoft.com
