vb.org Archive - View Single Post - Link mySQl data to external bulk email client

Gizmo999 · #1 02-02-2006, 12:49 PM

I've tried hacking the internal bulk email to do html and it sort of works OK but I'd prefer the control offered by my bulk email program Max Bulk Emailer. It allows importing of data and I can connect to my forum database but i don't know how to structure the query/commands need for additional info

I've never done any database work so its my first attempt and could do with pointing in the right direction. I'd need username, email address and a condition which only allows users who have selected to receive admin emails to be selected, easy when you know how, frustrating when you ain't got a clue

Screen shot for what info the email program needs is below

A virtual beer and lots of satisfaction for helping a newbie for whoever supplies the solution
