I'm using the "sp_send_cdosysmail" stored procedure in my queries to send e-mails in SQL Server 2000. Is it possible to create a hyperlink within the e-mail being sent and what is the format?

Thanks in advance,
Glenn

Have you tried HTML?

I'm using HTML as the e-mail format. Here is a sample line of code I'm using when trying to create the link.
SELECT @sHTML = @sHTML + '\\ninfpetsp001\shared\access_databases\gperque_A&G\doc1.doc

SELECT @sHTML = @sHTML + '<a href="' + \\ninfpetsp001\shared\access_databases\gperque_A&G\doc1.doc + '">Click here</a>'

I don't use sp_send_cdosysmail, so you can take this suggestion with a grain of salt, but I think you need to specify HTMLBody instead of TEXTBody in the code.



EDIT:
just googled for the sproc name and found this. search down the page for the HTMLBody info http://aspalliance.com/550_Sending_SQL_Notifications_via_CDOSYS_
