    System.Net.Mail MailMessage - detecting email size

    I have written a VB.Net program which generates emails via SmtpClient creating a mailmessage with a html formatted body with no attachments. All OK so far. However I would like to detect in the code what the size of the generated email message is - Mailmessage class doesnt seem to have a size...

    Just a follow-up to the previous post ... I eventually got it to work after solving a few small wrinkles ... the application i was running was expecting to be run in its own folder (to check some kind of registration / licence file) so i had to create the process then Process.StartInfo.FileName...

    Control to run window application in on a form

    I am looking for a suitable control to place on my form to run a windows application (.exe) in, working in a similar way to the webbrowser object 'runs' IE inside it. I have a feeling I may be missing something obvious here. Anybody got any starting points? Is some kind of custom control the...

    How do I user fontbold in vba e-mail from ms access

    I have found the easiest way to format email messages is to create the string as if it is a HTML document strmsg="<html><body> Hello <b>FRIEND</b> </body></html>" then set objOutlookmsg.HTMLBody = strMsg when you come to add to the message object before sending - probably need to amend your...

    Conditional Formatting based upon the color of a cell

    As Skip said - post it on the VBA forum and let the clever people there have a look at it - if you havent done any programming it would be a start recording a macro and looking at the vba it produces - record changing the background colour of a cell - thats what the vba will have to do

    Conditional Formatting based upon the color of a cell

    Might help if you posted the workbook you have done already. If it were my problem I would be writing some VBA to do it - because you have a relationship between the gate and the matrix via the relationship between the gate and the values - probably not something you can do via conditional...

    Interpretation of date field in csv file by excel

    The interpretation of the date by excel is correct however my point is the formatting it automatically applies to the cell - seemingly dd/mm/yyyy if the date is numeric or dd-mmm-yy if it contains letters (ie month) It isnt a major problem - i can reformat later - i just wondered if anyone had...
