asp_cdo thread: Using tag in cdonts mail message
Message #1 by m.murray@s... on Thu, 23 Aug 2001 16:10:57

Hi there!
I am sending a new mail message to a user who has filled out a contact
form. In the email I quote them a reference from a database and provide a
summary of the details they submitted.
It's all working fine - only one problem - Using a <br> tag in the body of
the message isn't starting a new line.
My code....
body = "Thank you for logging a call. Your reference is " & ref & "." &_
"<br>Listed below is a summary of your support query."&_
"<br>Problem: " & problem & ""&_
"<br>Time: " & temptime & ""
The result...
Thank you for logging a call. Your reference is 26.<br>Listed below is a
summary of your support query.<br>Problem: Can't connect to webserver or
SQL server. <br>Time: 15:58:54
How can I start a new line for each part of the email? My email client is
Outlook and message type is Plain Text. Is there a way to achieve this by
keeping the message type as Plain Text?
Cheers!
Matt

Try replacing the <BR> tags with the vbCR constant, like so
"This is a line of text" & vbCR _
& "This is a new line"
This will insert carraige returns, which are just plain text.
hope this helped.

use vbCrLf rather than vbCR

Why is vbCrLf better?
Is Space(1) the best way to add a ?
Cheers
