OK, here goes...

I want to create a form that will have a list of equipment. Each piece of equipment will have a button next to it (or maybe I will make a combobox where the model is selected, and it changes the function of a single button), either way, when the button is clicked I would like the following to happen:

- Open an Outlook email template for that model of equipment.
- Insert the customer's e-mail address in the 'to' field of the email
- Insert the following into the body of the email (all info below wil be in db):
* Shipping Cost
* Zip Code
* Total Price

How would this be done? Is there a generic tag I can insert into Outlook to serve as placekeepers for VB to look for (i.e. <ShipCost> ; <ZipCode> ; <TotalPrice>) ?

I've searched a bit and not found a good example, if someone could steer me in the right direction to a good post on the subject or offer suggestions, it would be appreciated!

Thank you!
