You've all received emails that are formatted in HTML, right? And you probably know how to create them in Outlook.

But is there a way to generate the HTML outside of Outlook--say in VFP--and then send the HTML as the body of the email message?

I already know how to programmatically create and send generic, bland-looking text-based emails. But it sure would be nice to dress them up a bit.

Granted, there are cases where we don't know what email program a recipient will be using. But there are a few cases where I know for certain that all recipients will be running Outlook 98 or higher.

Does anyone have any insights they'd care to share?

TIA
