Richtext Format Email

[dynamictiger]

I am currently working on an application to send email of changing and various messsages. One of the requirements is in respect to formatting of the font, text and so on.

Does anyone have any idea how to acheive an outgoing message text in Docmd.Sendobject as a rish text format?

You can use the code
DoCmd.SendObject acSendReport, "rptResult", acFormatRTF, attach the code to a button.
change acSendReport to whatever you are e-mailing i.e form,table ....
and the name of what you are sending.
If you leave out the format, it will bring a box up so you can choose what format you would like

No that did not work. I am trying to send a text message as RTF from a RTF control.

 

[kingsgambit]

What is the RTF control?

 

[dynamictiger]

An activeX control. It allows text formatting like bold, underline, italics and so on.

When I am sending information from access in email I put a command button on the switchboard and attached a 'sendobject' macro to it. When you set up the macro in the 'Action Arguments' box at the bottom of the screen you set the 'Output Format' to 'Rich Text Format (*rtf)'.

Hope this helps
