I need some help please.

I am sending a whole lot of emails from my Access application through
Outlook 2003. I use HTMLBody to create the body.

here is what I do:
1. I Create New Mail in Outlook and add the gif files necessary.

2. I export the mail as Filtered HTML.

3. I check the htm file and everything works fine.

3. I read the text of the file into my application and send it. The text
part works, but the graphics simply comes out as a box.

I have checked the setting in Outlook Internet Format and the Send picture .
.. . is ticked.

Anything else I need to do?

Also if I send a the email directly (i.e not through my VBA) the graphics
are sent.

many thanks
george

If you want embedded graphics, it takes a little extra effort to attach the files, etc. See http://www.outlookcode.com/d/code/htmlimg.htm

You need to attach the graphics as embedded graphics, not as a link to a
graphics source located somewhere.
