Default Creating "Plain Text" mail message in Outlook from Excel VBA

Hi Shane,

Sorry for the confusion. See Jim Rech's reply, which indicates (correctly)
that Outlook 2000 doesn't have the BodyFormat property in its object model.

From looking he

http://www.slipstick.com/dev/code/zaphtml.htm

Under the Notes section, you'll see that Outlook 2000 creates messages in
Rich Text format when you set the body via the Body property (no matter what
the default is set to). You may want to try an Outlook group to see what
you can do about it.

Jake,

Thank you for the reply.

When I try to include you line I get an
Runtime error 438 "Object doesn't support this property or method"!

I'm running Microsoft Excel 2000 and Outlook 2000 sp3.

Any ideas?

btw, the default message format in Outlook is "plain text".

regards

Shane

Hi Shane,

Try this line before the .Display line:

.BodyFormat = olFormatPlain
