auto email

[Admiral Huddy]

Can anyone think of a windows solution to look for a file with a specific name (.cvsv) that arrives in a designated folder, then sends that to a recipient by email?

Thanks

Easy enough to write a c# console app to do it.

If you know c#

Is that a typo for .csv or actually some real filetype you're using? Most email servers will reject email with non-standard file type attachments.

yes, it was sorry. The csv is being dropped into a share from an external source and emailed internally. As the file can come in at any time, the email means the user doesn't have to keep checking.

One application I have been trying for other automation tasks is Robointern.

This works a treat - Just needed a small script. Was up and running within a half hour.

True. Well what do you know?

*edit, resolved.

I'm an old school IBM midrange programmer.. If i told you precisely, you'd think you'd have entered the Twilight Zone - believe me.
