Sending HTML email using Outlook from VFP by itflash
faq184-1700
Posted: 27 Mar 02

I needed to create an email which looks like a web page.  So this is what this example lets you do.


Very simple, based on ramani's example.

Create a form with a command button.  
On the click event of the command button, place the following code.

o=createobject("outlook.application")
oitem=o.createitem(0)
oitem.subject="Email From VFP6"
oitem.to="flash@whereever.co.uk"
oitem.htmlbody="<HTML><H2>My HTML page.</H2><BODY>My body.</BODY></HTML>"
oitem.send
o=.null.


Therefore, the htmlbody is what you set to contain your HTML code.


One thing to note:
If you set the oitem.body, it will wipe the oitem.htmlbody




Rate it and I may get my first vote!
