Broken links in when sending e-mail through CDO.message

[rando1000]

I'm sending some automated e-mails through CDO.message. There is a text string being passed as a link in the message. It's a lengthy string, and when viewed in Outlook Express, the link becomes broken, as if OE is inserting a carriage return or something. The link works fine when viewed in Office Outlook.

Any suggestions?

The body of the message probably contains bare line feeds. What that means is any time a new line is requested, the body contains only the Line Feed character instead of the expected Carriage Return-Line Feed, You could load the message content into a variable, parse the variable using the Replace function to replace chr(10) with chr(13) & chr(10), and then just set .HTMLBody equal to the variable.

Thanks, I'll check into that.

The text string does not change when Replace(string, chr(13), chr(13)+chr(10)) is applied to it. I get the same outcome. It's weird, because this only happens in outlook express. I'm pretty sure this is just a limitation with Outlook Express. I just sent a completely different link from a random website and it broke the link at the same point: 76 characters.

You are correct....Simple MAPI is the only supported access to Outlook Express messages.
