title: Sending html email from VBA email program
body: <p>I have written an email program for my organization the handles some very specialized things very well, things I could use Outlook or Gmail for.  Now, the manager would like to send an occasional email to our small customer base, but I want the email body tto look professional and not send it as an attachment.  I have cobbled together an html document that present in all browsers and has been validated. My problem is I can't figure out how to point the message body at the html document.  Here is the salient code.</p>
  
  <p>This is where all is set up:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Do While mailRs.EOF = False
  'Me.AttachDoc = "C:\EmailFolder\CouponForm.pdf"
    emTo = mailRs.Fields("EmailAddr").Value
    emFrom = "SportsParkInfo@skokieparks.org"
    emSubject = Me.Subject
    emtextBody = Me.TextMessage
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Here is a the call for sending the email</p>
  
  <pre><code>Call SendAMessage(emFrom, mailRs.Fields("EmailAddr").Value, _
                     emSubject, emtextBody, emAttach)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>(I got the code for sending the email off the web and it works great through our mail server.)</p>
  
  <p>In the above, before the call @ <code>emtextBody = Me.TextMessage</code> is where I need to replace <code>Me.TextMessage</code> with the address/body of the html document. And the message box is a textBox on the ACCESS form. I can't find any control in ACCESS that takes html. I can't use the path to the html document because that generates an error. Is there a way of getting around this</p>
  
  <p>If more information is required I'll be happy to supply it.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks for your time.</p>
