Problem with CDOSYS

[The Ox]

I am having problems when running the following code, I have tried getting
support from my ISP but they haven't a clue...

'Creation of the Email Server Object
Set objMessage = CreateObject("CDO.Message")
Set objConfig = CreateObject("CDO.Configuration")

'Here is determined which way emails will be processed (local oder external
'server). Please always set an external server.

objConfig.Fields(cdoSendUsingMethod) = cdoSendUsingPort

'Outgoing SMTP server with SMTP authentication
objConfig.Fields(cdoSMTPServer) = "post.newnet.co.uk"

'SMTP port
objConfig.Fields(cdoSMTPServerPort) = 25
'Plain text authentication
objConfig.Fields(cdoSMTPAuthenticate) = cdoBasic

'account name
objConfig.Fields(cdoSendUserName) = ""

'password
objConfig.Fields(cdoSendPassword) = ""

objConfig.Fields.Update

Set objMessage.Configuration = objConfig
objMessage.To = "somebody@somedomain.com"
objMessage.From = "somebody@someotherdomain.com"
objMessage.Subject = "this is my subject"
objMessage.HTMLBody = "this is my message"

On Error Resume Next
objMessage.Send


It is falling over on the line objConfig.Fields(cdoSendUsingMethod) =
cdoSendUsingPort
I am getting the following error -



Any ideas, suggestions or tutorials would be appreciated.

Many thanks in advance

Arguments are of the wrong type, are out of acceptable range, or are in
conflict with one another.

Do you have cdoSendUsingMethod (and the other cdoXXXXX variables)
defined somewhere within your code, maybe in an include? If not, then
that is the probelm, those variable do not contain the values that the
objects being used expect. Take a look at the code from Microsoft for
sending email with CDOSYS:

(don't look in Firefox or Mozilla as M$ somehow botched up the display
for the <PRE> tag for those browsers)

You might try setting the config variables using the method I outlined in
this forum posting:

It's a little different from the method you're using, but I've used it
successfully.

Best regards,

It's a coding error. ISP's normally shy away from those. You probably
haven't included the meta data. eg

<!--METADATA TYPE="typelib" UUID="CD000000-8B95-11D1-82DB-00C04FB1625D"
NAME="CDO for Windows 2000 Type Library" -->
<!--METADATA TYPE="typelib" UUID="00000205-0000-0010-8000-00AA006D2EA4"
NAME="ADODB Type Library" -->

Another method is just to use the standard constants as Chris outlined in a
post on my site. Also some info here
