CDONTS Formatting Question

[Ed Richter]

Using CDONTS to send email message out. Am wondering if there's anything I can do, add tab charactor, or insert a table inside mesaage to make the fields in the message as shown below line up.

Match Date: 1/12/2005 Home Team: Hilton Away Team: Spencerport 2 Partner: Dave Linds
Match Date: 5/18/2005 Home Team: Spencerport Away Team: Greece Arcadia Partner: John Marroco

Code is generated by:

sMailposts =sMailposts & "Match Date: " & G_Date_value & " " & " Home Team: " & Home_value & " " & " Away Team: " & Away_value & " " & " Partner: " & Partner_F_name & " " & Partner_L_name & vbNewLine

Wondering if there's anything I can do within CDONTS to fix this??

Yes, but you would need to search for example script on sending HTML email via CDONTS or CDOSYS.

The tab is vbTab or Chr(9)
As in
sMailposts =sMailposts & "Match Date: " & G_Date_value & vbTab ....

But that may not align your fields (depend on the field value lengths)
