Outlook 2000 email template
 

I have 6 email templates with a slightly different hyperlink in each. The
hyperlinks prefill a text box on the destination web page (Intranet).
http://intranetwebpage/test1.htm?var=anyvalue

I am trying to find a way to set up a simple input box (drop down box) on
the email template which will change the 'anyvalue'.

Many thanks for any suggestions.

Describe what you mean by email template and who will be be using it. A "template" could be a simple HTML message or an Outlook custom form with its own controls.

Thanks Sue. I will try and explain the best I can.

The email templates are HTML .oft files. The templates/.oft files detail
date, time, location, etc for training we provide, including a hyperlink to
an online form, for completion by the delegates. These templates are located
in an email folder under a group email inbox which the Business
Administrators have read write access to. The Business Administrators will
be sending these templates out to delegates. I wanted the business
administrators to be able to change this hyperlink in a user friendly manner,
as the hyperlink prefills the date on the online form. The hyperlink to the
online form is displayed on the template/.oft as the words 'click here'
rather than the complete url.

So basically I was looking for a user friendly way to change the hyperlink
in the email template/.oft file before the template was sent to the delegates.

I hope this makes sense.

Not possible, because .oft files can't run code. Only published forms can run doce.
