Example - I'm a sports journalist, and cover several different teams, etc. in my city. Being able to send an email off each Monday covering the coming week to my editors and associated entities, using a different colour for each team's event that I'm covering shows everybody - at a glance - what I'm covering on each day. (Well, what I'm PLANNING to cover...) Yes, I could just fire off a Word doc, but having it right in the email is a LOT easier, especially for referring back to it later. I use the HTML email very rarely, (although I'd probably use it a little more if the implementation wasn't so very basic), but it's a great thing when you need it. And I've got to say, with bandwidth increasing at the rate it is, HTML email isn't the scourge it once was. (All the usual caveats - used sensibly, etc) -- cheers, Mic (reply address works) Multi-tasking - screwing everything up simultaneously. ________________________________________________ Current version is 2.11.02 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
