I need to put some text into an html link to send an html email. Is there a way to expand a string so it converts a string to valid html?

thanks

I'm not exactly sure what you looking for, but perhaps something like this would work:

<html>
<head>
<title>My page title</title>
</head>
<body>
<p>Here is my message with <a href="xyz.html">a link</a>.</p>
</body>
</html>

if
%LINK% = "file:\\\c:\program files\path with spaces"

this snippet

<html>
<head>
<title>My page title</title>
</head>
<body>
<p>Here is my message with <a href="%LINK%">a link</a>.</p>
</body>
</html>

doesnt expand into a usable link...

Attached is one way (uses project script code based on www.planet-source-code.com/vb/scripts/showcode.asp?txtCodeId=43806&lngWId=1).
