Hi,

Im using a stored procedure to send an email using CDOSYS. Im using the code i got here
http://support.microsoft.com/defaul...;312839&sd=tech

I can successfully send an email, but would like to know how i can add additional fields like setting the importance or priority of the how email. How would i change this stored procedure to do this.

here is the code...

CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[sp_send_cdosysmail]
@From varchar(100) ,
@To varchar(100) ,
@Subject varchar(100)=" ",
@Body varchar(4000) =" "
/************************************************** *******************

This stored procedure takes the parameters and sends an e-mail.
All the mail configurations are hard-coded in the stored procedure.
Comments are added to the stored procedure where necessary.
References to the CDOSYS objects are at the following MSDN Web site:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/d...s_messaging.asp

************************************************** *********************/
AS
Declare @iMsg int
Declare @hr int
Declare @source varchar(255)
Declare @description varchar(500)
Declare @output varchar(1000)

--************* Create the CDO.Message Object ************************
EXEC @hr = sp_OACreate 'CDO.Message', @iMsg OUT

--***************Configuring the Message Object ******************
-- This is to configure a remote SMTP server.
-- http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/d...n_sendusing.asp
EXEC @hr = sp_OASetProperty @iMsg, 'Configuration.fields("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendusing").Value','2'
-- This is to configure the Server Name or IP address.
-- Replace MailServerName by the name or IP of your SMTP Server.
EXEC @hr = sp_OASetProperty @iMsg, 'Configuration.fields("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpserver").Value', 'MailServerName'

-- Save the configurations to the message object.
EXEC @hr = sp_OAMethod @iMsg, 'Configuration.Fields.Update', null

-- Set the e-mail parameters.
EXEC @hr = sp_OASetProperty @iMsg, 'To', @To
EXEC @hr = sp_OASetProperty @iMsg, 'From', @From
EXEC @hr = sp_OASetProperty @iMsg, 'Subject', @Subject

-- If you are using HTML e-mail, use 'HTMLBody' instead of 'TextBody'.
EXEC @hr = sp_OASetProperty @iMsg, 'TextBody', @Body
EXEC @hr = sp_OAMethod @iMsg, 'Send', NULL

-- Sample error handling.
IF @hr <>0
select @hr
BEGIN
EXEC @hr = sp_OAGetErrorInfo NULL, @source OUT, @description OUT
IF @hr = 0
BEGIN
SELECT @output = ' Source: ' + @source
PRINT @output
SELECT @output = ' Description: ' + @description
PRINT @output
END
ELSE
BEGIN
PRINT ' sp_OAGetErrorInfo failed.'
RETURN
END
END

-- Do some error handling after each step if you have to.
-- Clean up the objects created.
EXEC @hr = sp_OADestroy @iMsg
go

i'll try...

create a table for the email info like to,cc,bcc,subject,from, body,status (if sent or not), priority (to set the priority),datesent

then traverse the table when you send the email...

since the sproc you posted only sends the mail based on the parameters

just an idea...
