Hello,
I found some code on the web that will allow me to email a file through my company's email program, Lotus Notes (which for the record, I can't stand). All I want to do is to send a file as an attachment to each physician in my company separately, with the physician's name in the subject heading. I have the physicians' email addresses and names listed in the spreadsheet. In the main body of my program, I loop through each of the physicians and call the below function:

SendMail (Email_Address, Dr_Name)

When I try to compile the program, it stops on the line above and says the syntax is invalid. I tried some testing and the function will work fine if I try to use only ONE parameter, either Email_Address or Dr_Name. I don't see why it shouldn't work if I tried to pass both parameters. Does anyone have any ideas? Below is the function I am borrowing. I appreciate your help!


'Based on code from:

Dim objNotesSession As Object
Dim objNotesMailFile As Object
Dim objNotesDocument As Object
Dim objNotesField As Object


Function SendMail(Email_Add As String, Dr_Name As String)
