Hi all,

I made a custom task wich generate and send an e-mail (HTML), I used
HTML.body

I have 3 pb

1) How to add variable (some text) to the HTML body ? when I add something
all the content of the Html is replaced by the text I added and the body
switch to Text format....

2) I added an image (logo) to the HTML mail but when the mail is received
the place of the image is empty

3) I want to use different color in my Html mail but I fail to use more
than one color , it always take the last color I used

Tks fo help

1) Show a code snippet to illustrate the problem. Remember that the content of HTMLBody must be fully tagged, consistent HTML code, just like in a web page.

2) See http://www.outlookcode.com/d/code/htmlimg.htm

3) Use font tags, just as you would in a web page.

None of your efforts will work because none of them produce valid HTML. In other words, you missed the basic principle I expressed in my earlier message, "... the content HTMLBody must be fully tagged, consistent HTML code, just like in a web
page." You can see this problem if, for example, after these statements execute:

myitem.HTMLBody = StrHTML
StrHTML = StrHTML & "p" & strDetails & "/p"

you look at the value of strHTML. Is it valid HTML? No, because it has a p tag after the closing /html tag.

All of your other attempts suffer from the same problem (or worse, they try to insert script, which won't run in HTML messages). Instead of appending text to the existing HTML, you need to ***insert text inside*** the existing HTML content. There are two ways to do that with straightforward text parsing (no need to use the HTML Document itself). These techniques have nothing specific to do with Outlook or HTML, but are the same techniques you could use to turn "this text" into "this insert variable text text":

1) Parse the existing HTML into two sections -- the part before you want to insert your text and the part after -- then concatenate the three: part before & your HTML & part after

2) If you want to append, use the Replace() function to replace the ending /body/html tags with your text followed by /body/html.

I find #2 to be by far the easier.

You don't. Task bodies are RTF, not HTML. See http://www.outlookcode.com/d/formatmsg.htm
