Sending HTML email from CDO?
by mbsoftwaresolutions＠mbsoftwaresolutions.com 14 Oct '16

14 Oct '16

I've constructed an HTML body that I want to email, but I must be missing a switch. When I send it, I just see text. I'm googling for the settings options but figured I'd fire this out in the meanwhile (if for nothing else than a future search). tia!

HI ALL. OUR SUPPORTFORAMLIRELAND @INDIGO.IE EMAIL ACCOUNT IS GONE THANKS TO TELECOM EIREANN-EIRCOM-EI. THEY HAVE BEEN TAKEN OVER TWICE AND THE NEW OWNERS HAVE BEEN LIFTING COPPER AND LAYING FIBER.

sweetpotato
by Allen Pollard 07 Oct '16

07 Oct '16

Hi foxgang Was looking to solve an issue of VFPEncryption71.fll being invalid. Most google results point to sweetpotato, obviously, but the web pages have gone. I see sweetpotato website is still there but does anyone know if the various useful tools have gone? Also anyone know a cure for it being invalid. It is on a web service and has the 2 c++ dll's in the same directory. I am assuming security but I put the directories as read/write to everyone and still no go. Is there another file other than the c++ dll's? TIA Al

Ted -- sorry...found this draft I started 4 months ago and never pressed Send. Somehow the issue has been resolved. I did upgrade to TeamViewer 11 recently. Not sure if that was the fix or not? So glad the upgrade price was a few hundred instead of the $1000 they initially wanted. :-) Thanks again for asking! --Mike
