Send Email to Excel or Access

How to send an Email Newsletter to a MS Excel sheet or MS Access database

MailList Controller has an alternate list mode called "Linked List", which allows you to send an email newsletter to Excel or Access directly without prior import.

 

This list mode is the right choice for you if your excel or access file changes often. Use a "normal" mailing list (non-linked list) instead, if you want to grow your list using automated subscribe requests (the linked Excel sheet or Access database will be opened read-only).

 

check Link to an Excel or Access file.

check The contacts will be queried in "real-time" from the external database.

check The program won't make any changes to the external file.
