Hi All,
I am automating the creation of a daily report email, which all seems to work ok (brings up new email with all the right information) however the one problem I have is I have a link to an intranet site, which doesnt activate as a link in the email (just plain text).
The further difficulty is that it links to the file the macro uploaded earlier, which is a variable filename (Report (date).xls) which makes it quite hard. any pointers would be great, i've read all of Ron De Bruins work(which I am using) looking for tips to no avail.
I have also tried changing the outlook properties to use plain text or html neither works.
