How to MAILMEREGE via COM

Hi experts !

We need to automate Notes for marketing purposes. While we have god knowledge of COM & Outlook as the mail client, we can’t find a Notes’ way to use a template ( RTF or HTML ), personalize from a database record & send it down the line

oNotes = CreateObject(“Lotus.Notessession”) oNotes.Initialize

oDB = oNotes.GetDbDirectory( ‘’ )

omdb = odb.OpenMailDatabase()

odoc = omdb.createdocument()

this works, but how can i invoke a template from disk and modify it ?

TIA Susan

You will find lots of examples in the Sandbox and in the R5 forum…

Unfortunately, most of the examples & docs are LS based, which is’nt applicable, i’m looking for straigthforward examples in COM, covering the use of HTML / RTF Files as templates, fill them with database fields, save & send - should be easy, but i can’t find
