How to create a PDF and send it using an Email resource

[Matt]

I am new at using ebase, I have created a form with an Email resource mapped to it. I am trying to work out how I can get the completed form to be sent as a PDF attach in the e-mail. Can this be done and if so how.

First: Create the Print Design (see http://www.ebaseftp.com/website/340doc/ ... signer.htm).
Second: Print the PDF (see http://www.ebaseftp.com/website/340doc/ ... c176316845).
Third: Send the Email with the created PDF (see http://www.ebaseftp.com/website/340doc/ ... c176316851).

My form is called HFRS_FIRE_FIT1 and my E-mail resourse is called HFRS_FIRE_FIT

So I made a script:
PDFPrint save ;

and another script to send the e-mail which is
sendmail HFRS_FIRE_FIT with attachments HFRS_FIRE_FIT1 ;

but I get:

Script HFRS_PDF - Invalid Field HFRS_FIRE_FITP in command>sendmail HFRS_FIRE_FIT with attachments HFRS_FIRE_FITP *

Can you help

The script should be something along the lines of:

Code: Select all

pdfPrint save;
sendmail HFRS_FIRE_FIT with attachments $FILE_NAME;

Normally you would save the $FILE_NAME into a variable and use this to send the email.
