Form Info Arrives as Simple Text

Forms edited in FP2003 now send client email addresses to Outlook in text only form and not as live html links.

No settings have been changed since upgrading from FP 2000, only the email address they are being sent to, ie. HTML is the chosen format for the form.

How do I again make these addresses appear as live HTML links in the Outlook email?

FP doesn't send HTML email, that HTML option is only for writing to a page within your web when
using the Discussion Web or Guest book.

So why don't the captured emails in my form repliess arrive as live links? FP2003 seems to be responsible but I don't know how.

Can you provide a URL to the form?

FP2003 uses the FP2002 extensions, and nothing has changed in the way the extensions process forms.

Because the message is sent as plain text (no URLs or Email addresses are linked)
If you have a field named Email (where users enter their Email address)
Right Click the form for Form Properties Options and in Email Results select the Reply-to Line (Form Field Name) option and then
enter the Field name (Email)
When the form arrives in Outlook select Reply-To to see the user email address
