Outlook

Hi,
try to use xp_sendmail. but you don't need the database in
single user to run dbcc checkdb, you only need single user
mode if you use the repair option.

hi,
to use xp_sendmail we must have SQL mail configured on the SQL box. This is
not my case because I can't touch the box. What I wanted is to use Outlook
on my pc to send email out. Is it possible?

the app is proprietary so ... no touching. It seems that it would repair
data if possible.
