Hi all,

I have a customer that needs to send a mailing to his costumers but he wants to send a HTML document as the body of the message.

I know how i can send the html file as attachment but the result for my client is not the same.

We have Navision 4Sp1 with SQL2000.

Anyone have some urgent idea ](*,) ?

Thanks for your time,
XMAN

    Thanks for your quick response.

    I don't know too much about .NET. Can you give a more explicit answer?

    Is there any developed SMTP OCX component already developed in .NET that i can register in Navision???

    Thanks for your help

    If you send a report as HTML and your Outlook formatting is HTML the report becomes the body of the email.

    I've tested 3.7

    I try to solve my problem in 2 different ways:

    First i read all html lines of the html file and send them in the body of the email and don't work. The format of Outlook is HTML. I used codeunit 397 to do that.

    On the other hand, i make some research at the internet (google my best friend :D ) and i found an SMTP OCX but it doesn't work.

    Ther error is:

    Problem with member Send.SMTPMailXControl1.SMTPMailX

    Anyone knows why?

    Thanks a lot,

    What I did was open report 1, select preview, then File->Send->Report By-Email.

    My Outlook is set as HTML and the report becomes the body of a new mail.

    Mark,
    When I do that, the description text on the line comes into the body as multiple lines. This also happens when I make the html come in as an attachment, when I open the attachment the line looks the same.

    Any ideas would be appreciated!

    Thanks,
    Kelly

    Is there a way to use a report and send it by html and also fill the message fields To: and Subject: automatically?
    I mean: print a report (which save it as a html), opens a e-mail message and fills the fields automatically?

    This is al working offcourse but is it manually.
    Did anyone found a solution to the original question, as is make a html formated mail via codeunit 397?
    Ie. when i use addbodyline('<B>bold</B>') it adds the complete text (with the <B> in it....and i want in the mail to interprete it...
    and i do not want to work with smtp ocx's because i need to give the control to the user to modify the mail message before sending it....
