OK, I'm going to assume you know how to open a recordset and all that (if I'm mistaken, let me know).
I guess I need to know how you plan to populate the body of the email.
The only thing that's not completely straight forward is populating the To field. I'll do that below. Other than that, this app should take less than 20 lines of code. If you need more meat than what I post, let me know.
Open your recordset
do the following to populate the To field
<%
' ::::: POPULATE THE TO FIELD
While Not rsMyRecordset.EOF
strTo = strTo & ";" & rsMyRecordset.Fields.Item("fldEmail Address".Value
rsMyRecordset.MoveNext
Wend
' ::::: SEND THE EMAIL
Set oMail = Server.CreateObject("CDONTS.NewMail"
oMail.From = strFrom
oMail.To = strTo
oMail.Subject = strSubject
oMail.Body = strBody
'oMail.Cc = " ; "
'oMail.Bcc = " ; "
oMail.Send
Set oMail = Nothing
%>
Hope this helps...
