I am pretty new to VB.net programming and I seem to be missing a critical element to understanding how to use these code samples. For example the code below taken from this site does not work for me. VB underlines the two items surrounded by ** in the sample code below and says that "type Mail Attachement is not defined" also says that "name smtpMail is not declared"
What am I missing - each time I try to download sample code I run into the same types of issues????
Thanks!
Dim oMsg As System.Web.Mail.MailMessage = New System.Web.Mail.MailMessage()
oMsg.From = "noone@nobody.com"
oMsg.To = "someone@somewhere.com"
oMsg.Subject = "Email with Attachment Demo"
oMsg.Body = "This is the main body of the email"
Dim oAttch As *MailAttachment = New MailAttachment("C:\myattachment.zip")
oMsg.Attachments.Add(oAttch)
SmtpMail.Send*(oMsg) -

I have tried to attach to oMsg.Body a richtexbox text.
I found that it doesn't work this way. I presume is because I have to send html formated text or plain text.
But still, I would like to send formated texts (from my app) in order to have well designed e-mails to my receivers.
How I amm supposed to accomplished that? -
The code is simple and works fine with me!!!

Dim objSender As SmtpMail
objSender.SmtpServer = "SMTPMAILSERVER"
Dim objMsg As New MailMessage
objMsg.From = "email@server.com"
objMsg.To = "email@server.com"
objMsg.Subject = "Test HTML"
objMsg.BodyFormat = MailFormat.Html
objMsg.Body = "<html><h1>hello</h1></html>"

objMsg.Fields("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtsperver") = "SMTPMAILSERVER"

I have seen this format before and I believe that format is for VB System not a Web App - I am not sure if I stated my question clearly enough.
I am using .NET
from the client side I want to be able to send an email and specify the email server username and password.
I will retry that code just to be sure - I posted the message a while back and cant remember much.. -
hi
you can keep that code any where its not a problem whether a webpage calls it or a windows app.
whats important is that it works on the .net framework.
do you mean by client side, that you use javascript, if yes, you can use AJAX to call a function from the server side, without any trip to the server.
