.HTMLBody Question

Hi

I want to build a dynamic email that includes data from our database using
the .HTMLBody Function

I want all images in the email to be bound to the email using the 'Send
Images form Internet' switch

the images are held in a network folder

the whole email is created from an empty Outlook template file held in the
same location as the images.

when the email is created and displayed on screen, the images are missing!

if I include <base href=""file://///path/> then the images appear!

is there another way I could make the images appear, as I don't want to
display the path information in the html source code?

Thanks

Jado

Jado,

Do you mean that after you send the email, the path specification is visible
in the html source?

I have found that if you insert images into your html email (Outlook 2003),
that the images are converted to an "embedded" resource only after you click
the "Send" and therefore the recieved email does not expose the path.

I'm am building the email dynamical using vba code.

for some reason, even though the 'Send pictures from the internet' switch is
set, it doesn't display the images when the email is received.

the only way I've found is the reference live images from the internet, but
this is not an option.

what I need is to send the images embedded in the email with no reference to
where they came from.

Thanks

Hi Michael

Thanks, I've downloaded Redemption..

any chance of a simple example..

basically, I need to build the html using .HTMLBody and include in it a
image which is stored on the network. But there should be no reference to
the original network path of the image once received by the recipient.

Thanks

Jado
