    Exclamation Solved: embed a usable excel file in body of email

    Hi,
    I want to send an email with a little worksheet embedded in the body of the email. Here's the catch: I want the recipient to be able to REPLY to me and enter information in that worksheet, still in the body of the email. I have attached a screenshot of what I want - the problem is, when I send the email the worksheet is converted to a picture.

    Is there any hope?

    Have you actually tried it?

    If you insert the cells as HTML (see http://www.rondebruin.nl/mail/folder3/mail4.htm), then your recipient can hit reply and "edit" the "cells" on the "worksheet".

    But it won't be a worksheet in the traditional sense. If you need to capture the data that's entered, consider using a custom form.
