I am trying to put a signature created for Outlook into the email body when sending to a group. I was able to copy and paste the signature into the email using HTML but when I sent the email I got an error and the program crashed. Is this possible to do?
PC+ 11.55 on a Windows 10 machine with the latest MR.

The error I get is:
Program: mailassist.OBULKMAIL.PARSEHTML
Line: 56
Error: 202
Message: Invalid path or file name

I am beginning to think I am trying to do something that just won't work. The signature is a graphic that was made up to use in Outlook and I am trying to copy and past it into the text body. Looks like V12 will resolve the problem since it looks like you can send a group email using the local mail client which would have the signature attached. I only have the demo right know so I can not test it here.

Yeah,I have v12 here, and it does offer that option. What type of graphic is it?

Can't say for sure. Someone at the church made it up for each of the pastors, the secretary and me. I modified mine so it is a jpeg file but the secretary's is not. I can paste the jpeg file into the email in HTML format but it will not send. I will wait until we get v12 and see how that works. Preparing to change out the office computer so I have to wait until that is done.

Also having some problems with my home computer not creating reports in V12. Will need to wait until that is resolved before I can move forward with the upgrade as well.

V12 has an updated Seagate Report Writer. What type of issues are you seeing with that?

Office products like Word and Outlook do a weird temp file thing with inline images and the file paths do not translate to use outside of Office. If you recreate that signature line in the PowerChurch e-mail editor, it will use actual file paths and you can save it as a template for use later.

Good ... if he can't figure it out, no one can.
