thanks Jason.
I typed that in to replace the original code, and now the mail is sent correctly.
to try and finish off. I want to use my recordset to include the first name of each member for their respective email.
I read in another thread about adding $RecipArray etc as globals and using this instead of the recordset , but again, the changes I make don't seem to stick if done via the wizard.
Is this the correct approach to take ?
