    Question Sending report as PDF attachment is in plain text, need HTML email

    Hello,

    My problem: I am using a macro (not vba) to send a report as PDF attachment. This is going perfectly well, exept for one thing. The email is written in plain text, and I want it to be in HTML because I want to insert my signature which contains links and an image. In the situation now I need to change it everytime manually from plain text to HTML.

    I use a macro that looks like this:
    EMailDatabaseObject


    Object type: Report
    Object name: rptInvoice
    Output format: PDF Format (*.pdf)
    To: =[Reports]![rptInvoice]![customerEmail]
    CC:
    BCC:
    Subject: Invoice
    Message text: this is your invoice
    Edit message: Yes
    Template file:

    Is there any way that I can set it to sent the mail and put it in HTML instead of plain text?

    Kind regards,
    Miicker

    I don't think so. Not 100% as I've never looked into it - but the nature of what you seek would require a template to exist for the email to import into its body ....and I don't see that capability.

    You could restructure your report to include a preface that has that email info plus your signature image. That's about the best I can come up with at the moment......

    I tried getting the picture from the report, it didn't work. Also tried using a template file with HTML, still uses plain text.
