Scarecrow Man Posted April 18, 2005 Report Share Posted April 18, 2005 You would have to send it as html. Outlook Express has an option under Tools > Options. Click the Send tab.What e-mail program are you using? and how are you making your template? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
draggin Posted April 18, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2005 I have used an html editor to build the page, my e-mail client is Outlook (Office 2000) I have set outlook up so that it use word as the e-mail editor and was intending to send it from there. Problem is when I click on new mail in Outlook, the write e-mail page within word opens, but then when I go file open on my template, it opens in a new instance of word without the outlook bar.There must be an easier way than this???Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nellie2 Posted April 18, 2005 Report Share Posted April 18, 2005 I don't presume to know the answer to this.... but the fact that the html mail opens as an attachment may be a security feature of your email client.It is very easy to insert malicious script into an html document... that can be run just by viewing the document. My email client is set up not to accept html emails. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
