RE: Formatting within email from CFMail?
If you are using HTML email you can use a regular HTML table tag. If not you can use lJustify() around each value to force it to use the same number of characters. Of course then you need to email client to use a fixed width font, but you can't control that. Personally, I'd recommend using HTML. -Original Message- From: Rick Faircloth [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, 10 February 2004 3:40 p.m. To: CF-Talk Subject: Formatting within email from CFMail?

RE: Formatting within email from CFMail?
CFMAIL supports HTML formatted messages. You should be able to specify HTML as the type and just create a table in the email. Make sure the recipient can read HTML formatted mail before you send it -Cameron - Cameron Childress Sumo Consulting Inc --- land: 858.509.3098 cell: 678.637.5072 aim: cameroncf email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -Original Message- From: Rick Faircloth [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, February 09, 2004 7:40 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Formatting within email from CFMail?

For plaintext, though, use the LJustify() function. Something like this: #LJustify(AgentLastName & ", " & AgentFirstName, 35)# #LJustify(PropertyAddress, 30)# #LJsutify(PropertyState, 30)# #ExpirationDate# Adjust the column width to suit your application.
