Sending hyperlinks with Outlook mail

T

Theo Boers

I have made an access application for documentation management within the
projects at the company I work for. The project team members have access to
this database and register all incoming and outgoing communication and
documentation in this database. To inform other team members of new
documents, faxes, letters etc. I have included a "Distribute" command button
on the registration form with which an e-mail is made (SendObject method). In
this mail access will paste a hyperlink to the document. User only has to
enter names to which document has to be distributed. Problem I have is that
access generates a mail in "plain text" format. Long hyperlinks are than
wrapped in this message and link is no longer working. When message is in
"rich text" format this problem does not occur. Is there a way to force
access to open a mail message in "rich text" format ? Note: In our office
Outlook is configured to open new mail messages in "rich text" format.
Obviously access overules this setting. Thanks, Theo
