Thanks Ron, works a treat, now only one last (annoyingly small) hurdle to
overcome (isn't there always?!)...

Dear x,

Thank you for the brief conversation last night.

The first sentence is in calibri, the Dear x line in times new roman (don't
know why on earth it should be ... calibri is my default font)

I guess I need to use html body like i did for the signature but it seems a
lot big change to solve such a little problem, any ideas?

Thanks and regards, Mark

VbNewLine is not working in HTML


Use this * <br


strbody = "<H3<BDear Customer</B</H3" & _
* * * * * * *"Please visit this website to download the new version.<br"
& _
* * * * * * *"Let me know if you have problems.<br" & _
* * * * * * *"<A HREF=""http://www.rondebruin.nl/""Ron's Excel Page</A"
& _
* * * * * * *"<br<br<BThank you</B"

Hi,


Everything is fine until I want a html signature at which time the code
stops recognising the new line instruction.


Here's the relvant bits of the code the first works fine the second has
the problem, both codes are the same except the line:


*.Body = strbody & vbNewLine & vbNewLine & Signature


changes to


*.HTMLBody = strbody & vbNewLine & vbNewLine & Signature


Here's the code:


psCustomerName *= "John Smith"


strbody = "Dear " & psCustomerName & "," & vbNewLine & vbNewLine & _
* * * * * * *"This is line 1" & vbNewLine & _
* * * * * * *"This is line 2" & vbNewLine & _
* * * * * * *"This is line 3" & vbNewLine & _
* * * * * * *"This is line 4":


With OutMail
*.Body = strbody & vbNewLine & vbNewLine & Signature


The plain text code outputs an email that looks like:


Dear John Smith,
This is line 1
This is line 2
This is line 3
This is line 4


The HTML code outputs an email that looks like:


Dear Wilddan, This is line 1 This is line 2 This is line 3 This is line 4


Regards,


Can anyone tell me how I can find some instructions on how to format a
html email so it comes out how I want?


Thanks for your help, Mark
