Subject: [libreoffice-users] LO Base - Adding an eMail button?
Hi All
I'm running LO 3.6.2.2 on PCLOS 2012.
I have a Membership Database running with LO Base as the Front End and MySQL as the engine.
I have added a "Send" button to the Form to be able to send an eMail to the Member directly.
But I need help in setting-up the Button Properties to do this.
I would like it, (if possible), to extract the eMail address from the form,
open my Mail Client (Thunderbird) and insert that address into the mail for me.
Can anyone assist me?
Many thanks
IanW
