Ray:
It turns out that the company server where the program will finally be installed does not allow for sending emails outside its network. I'm trying to go around that impediment by linking the program to a Gmail account where there will be a pre-formatted email form that the chief accountant may send to the interested parties.
The small obstacle I have found is that the link opens the Gmail window in the same tab of the program (payslip) page.
Is there any code that I could add to the link so that the Gmail page opens in a separate tab?
