I am using CDO to send information from one form to a few different people. Everything is working fine but the body shows the link typed out instead of as a link. I thought there was something like objNewMail.BodyFormat = 1 or something like that which would make it work, but it's not working. I tried = 1 and = 0 and both showed the same thing. Does anyone know how to create a link in the email being sent through CDO?

per MSDN

The Body property can contain either plain text or HTML. The BodyFormat property should be set to indicate whether or not the Body property includes any HTML.


I'm assuming this means that it is up to the client to determine whether or not to process the body as HTML and format it accordingly (into a real link). Your email is still sent in plain text, it just includes some HTML code too.

Hi,

Set Both BodyFormat and MailFormat as 0.

e.g.

Dim myMail
Set myMail = CreateObject("CDONTS.NewMail")

HTML = "<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC ""-//IETF//DTD HTML//EN"">" & NL
HTML = HTML & "<html>"
HTML = HTML & "<head>"
HTML = HTML & "<meta http-equiv=""Content-Type"""
HTML = HTML & "HTML = HTML & ""content=""text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"">"""
HTML = HTML & "<title>Sample NewMail</title>"
HTML = HTML & "</head>"
HTML = HTML & "<body>"
HTML = HTML & "This is a sample message being sent using HTML. <BR></body>"
HTML = HTML & "</html>"

myMail.From = "Example@microsoft.com"
myMail.To = "Someone@microsoft.com"
myMail.Subject = "Sample Message"
myMail.BodyFormat = 0
myMail.MailFormat = 0
myMail.Body = HTML
myMail.Send
Set myMail = Nothing


Check it.

Regards,
Saran.

Thank you very much for the replies. I'm sorry I didn't get back sooner, but because of the username problem I didn't get an email stating anyone replied.

That is exactly what I needed, thanks for hte help!
