I used Rob Paddock's newsletter bahaviour v1.0 to send out a newsletter to subscibers who send their email address to a newsletter table in an Access database. I tried to add a link back to the homepage and have accomplished this. Only problem is I want hyperlink to say "visit my website", not just "website" As soon as I enter more than one word the link doesn't work and just prints as plain text in the email that's received.So
message = message + "<a href='www.ginniedevroomen.com'>website</a>"
works ok but
message = message + "<a href='www.ginniedevroomen.com'>visit website</a>"
doesn't
I've spent many hours looking for a solution but no luck.
Also, is there any way I can embed a picture in the email when i use the newsletter component.
Thanks from Scotland

Why not try:
linktext = "visit my website"
message = message & "<a href='www.ginniedevroomen.com'>" & linktext & "</a>"
See if that works!

Dave, Thanks for your reply. Your suggestion didn't work - just got plain old text (no hyperlink) - the best I've been able to do is to put
message = message + " www.sitename.com"
at least it creates a link to the homepage,
