I am using the following code to send e-mail through Outlook from Excel.

SigString = "C:\Documents and Settings\...\Signatures\Bill.txt"

If Dir(SigString) <> "" Then

Signature = GetBoiler(SigString)

Else

Signature = ""

End If

olBody="xxxemailmessagexxx" & Signature

Set olMail = olApp.CreateItem(olMailItem)

With olMail

> To = olToName

> cc = olccName

> Subject = olSubject

> Body = olBody

> Attachments.Add olAttach1

> Send

End With

My regular Outlook layout has a blue background plus some paragraph

formatting - this sends the message with no background, and I have to insert

vbCrLf to get the paragraph formatting I want. Is there some way to pick up

my standard Outlook e-mail settings?

All the answers I've seen refer to the signature - I have that part worked

out. But that doesn't give me the background and font I want.

Try displaying the email first and then setting the Body property.

With olMail

> To = olToName

> cc = olccName

> Subject = olSubject

> Display

> Body = olBody

> Attachments.Add olAttach1

> Send

End With

Hadn't thought about that - certainly a solution - I'll probably try that for

now. Just seems like somebody would have wanted to do this before and

someone would have found out how.
