Outlook 2003 SP3

Hi,

I have a script that populates a Word template with Item.Body. The

following DOES work:

Set objSel = objDoc.Windows(1).Selection

Set objTable = objDoc.Tables(1)

objDoc.Bookmarks("Body").Range.InsertBefore Item.Body

The problem is that it doesn't keep the formatting. So I tried to do this

and it DOES NOT work. What am I missing?

Set objSel = objDoc.Windows(1).Selection

Set objTable = objDoc.Tables(1)

objSel.Copy Item.Body

objSel.PasteAndFormat (wdPasteDefault)

Thank you very much for your help,

Joel
 
If you use Word as email editor in Outlook, you could try to pass

Item.Getinspector.WordEditor (which returns a Word.Document) to objDoc.

Else this workaround could also work: Save the html email as a file, and

open that file with Word.

Best regards

Michael Bauer

I'm sorry Michael, I'm still kind of lost. Can you point me to some more

sample code that might help me?

Thank you again,

Joel
