Pictures in mail item body

I

Ivan Debono

Hi all,

I have an htm page that I opened in internet explorer and saved as archive
(mht). Then I opened the mht file in word, did some changes and saved it as
a doc. The doc has various pictures.

I create an email message and insert the doc contents (copy from word and
paste into email message), and save the email as a draft. I have a macro
that sends an email to a recipient based on this draft. The code is:

Set oMal = Application.CreateItem(olMailItem)
With oMal
.To = emailaddress
.Subject = mydraft.Subject
.BodyFormat = olFormatHTML
.HTMLBody = mydraft.HTMLBody
.Send
End With

But when I send the email, it arrives without pictures.

How is it possible to do the above but the pictures are also included?

Thanks,
Ivan

Getting pictures into an HTML message programmatically. HTMLBody contains on the <html></html> text. It does not include the pictures that are referred to inside the <html> element. Those would have to be added as attachments and set up in the manner demonstrated at http://www.outlookcode.com/d/code.htm#htmlimg.

Instead of creating a new message, why don't you make a copy of the item in Drafts and send the copy?
