Emailing A Report For A Specific Record
Colin M 

11 years ago
Yes, am wanting Rich text in the message area, and formatted with carriage returns, etc.


Reply from Alex Hedley:

Which Macro command are you using for the Email?
Does it just send or are you showing Outlook before you send?

I know you don't do VBA but there is a property which determines whether the Body is Text or HTML

Use for plain text
  .TextBody

Use for Rich Text
  .HTMLBody

I'd guess this is a parameter in the Macro, I'd have to check.

You could always switch it when/if Outlook opens.

For the value from your Access Form to pass across with Formatting you'd need to change the Textbox Control Property of TextFormat to RichText so you could have it in there.

This is covered in B4 and X5.
