rellimMA Thanks, that does help. For one thing, it reveals the accdb uses a macro, not VBA, which is important to know.
According to this macro, the only line involved is emailing "something". The Object Type, Object Name and Output Format fields are blank, i.e. not specified. That would account for why Access has to ask what you want to send. You are probably right (I almost never use macros, so details about them aren't top of mind) about the default being to open a blank email. That said, the macro command displayed is, quite clearly, EmailDatabaseObject, which implies that an object is expected by the macro. Is that the same in both macros?
