Format a line in Outlook message
-
Hi I'm using the following code to create an outlook mail message, but need to bold and undeline certain lines in the message body. How can I do this?
Dim oOutlook As New Outlook.Application Dim oMailitem As Outlook.MailItem oMailitem = CType(oOutlook.CreateItem(Outlook.OlItemType.olMailItem), Outlook.MailItem) oMailitem.To = "" oMailitem.Subject = "Order Request" Dim MailBody As String = "Hi," _ & ControlChars.NewLine _ & "Please could you place orders as per the requirement below" _ & ControlChars.NewLine _ & "I WANT THIS LINE BOLD....." _ & ControlChars.NewLine _ & "Thanks!!" -
