Send SMS/Text Messages from Command Line with VBScript! This is probably the tidiest solution, IMO. You could use the same approach as option 3, but move the Outlook VBA into a PowerShell script (which you would run from a command line). Then, launch Outlook from the command line with the /autorun parameter, as per this answer (alter path/macroname as necessary): C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office11\Outlook.exe" /autorun macroname Importance = olImportanceHigh 'High importance Body = "This is the body of the message." &vbCrLf & vbCrLf Subject = "This is an Automation test with Microsoft Outlook" ' Set the Subject, Body, and Importance of the message. Set objOutlookMsg = objOutlook.CreateItem(olMailItem) Set objOutlook = CreateObject("Outlook.Application") Essence of this is: Sub SendMessage(DisplayMsg As Boolean, Optional AttachmentPath)ĭim objOutlookAttach As Outlook.Attachment
There are lots of examples for this online, including from Microsoft here. There are two parts to this first, figure out the VBA scripting required to send an email. You could drive Outlook directly from a VBA script, which in turn you would trigger from a batch file this would let you send an email using Outlook itself, which looks to be closest to what you're wanting. It depends on your target environment, though if you're deploying your batch file to multiple machines, that will obviously require inclusion (but not formal installation) each time. If you're prepared to use third-party software, an option is something like this SendEmail command-line tool.
#Send text via outlook windows 7
Note that PowerShell 2.0, which is installed by default on Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008R2, includes a simpler Send-MailMessage command, making things easier. You could then launch the script from the command line as per this example: powershell.exe -noexit c:\scripts\test.ps1 The essence of this is: $smtp = New-Object Email","This is a test")
You didn't say much about your environment, but assuming you have it available you could use a PowerShell script one example is here.
