Constructing an HTML Email in a layout.

Featured Replies

I was thinking it would be smart to construct my html email on a layout in layout mode. I just put all the html in 3 normal text boxes (header, body, and footer) with merge fields to bring in the data from the record.

It seems to be a good solution as it saves creating complex calculations..

I use the GetLayoutObjectAttribute function to get the contents of each of the 3 text boxes individually.

But for the body attribute, I need to get the contents of this object on all currently found records (this is an invoice layout, where the body is a line item).

Is this possible within the "Specify Calculation" dialog?

See this thread about how to "bring up" children into a parent. Bottom line pre-8.5, use a related value list and ValueListItems ( ), 8.5+ use List ( ).

btw, FM only sends plain emails. For html, you'll need a plug-in.
