Greetings,

Using Outlook 2010 I created two templates that goes out to certain recipients every day.

The first template is used for the e-mail that goes out Tuesdays – Fridays & will have the following for the Subject/body:


Subject: report for: <today’s date> in “mm/dd/yy” format

Body of e-mail:

…my text: <yesterday’s date> “mm/dd/yy” format

…my textg: <today’s date> “mm/dd/yy” format

The second template is used for the e-mail that goes out on Mondays & will have the following for the Subject/body:

Subject: report for: <today’s date>

Body of e-mail

…my text: <Friday’s date> and <Saturday’s date>

….my text <today’s date


my goal is to update the dates each time I open my templates. For this, I used the attached code which works fine. However, how can I format my text (font, bold etc.) as in the (attached) sample?

TIA

Try <b></b> around the words. Set the item.body to item.HTMLBoday. You may also need to use <br /> instead of the vbCR.

Text_TF = "…I ran the report <b>using</b>: " & Format(Date - 1, "mm/dd/yy") & _
vbCrLf & "<br />….I ran this report using " & Format(Date, "mm/dd/yy")
MyItem.HTMLBody = Text_TF

changing fonts uses a similar method.
