Home Forums SQL Server 7,2000 T-SQL Create a scheduled task to email from SQL RE: Create a scheduled task to email from SQL

  • Thanks for this,

    I have used the query below:

    EXEC master.dbo.xp_sendmail

    @recipients = N'name@domain.com',

    @query = N'EXEC ComSys..RPT_3_DailyEmail ''17-oct-2008''',

    @subject = N'SQL Server Report',

    @message = N'Test',

    @attach_results = 'TRUE',

    @width = 250 ;

    and it throws back an error of:

    Server: Msg 18030, Level 16, State 1, Line 0

    xp_sendmail: Either there is no default mail client or the current mail client cannot fulfill the messaging request. Please run Microsoft Outlook and set it as the default mail client.

    I have since installed outlook on the SQL server and set microsoft outlook to the default mail client but it still displays the error above.

    What else have I missed?

    Thanks again
