Thanks for the effort and information Dave, I had already stumbled across the SENDMAIL addin but it just doesn't fit my user's needs ... just too complicated for my users ... plus VB has me snowed ATT. HOWEVER, I did figure out how to insert the CRLF so that my needs are satisfied. I used the %0D%0A string to insert the CRLF into the body like I needed. Here's the resulting =HYPERLINK function: =HYPERLINK("mailto:someuser@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?Subject=The Subject&Body=" & C4 & "%0D%0A" & C5 & ".", "Click Here To Send EMAIL") Larry ************************************** See what's new at http://www.aol.com ************************************************************* You are receiving this mail because you subscribed to mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx or MicrosoftOffice@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To send mail to the group, simply address it to mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx To Unsubscribe from this group, visit the group's homepage and use the dropdown menu at the top.
