Good morning gurus! I have searched the web and could not find if it would be possible to send an email through outlook which you can copy or attached a table into the body of the email. It would be a simple table but yet I would still need it to look nice(same as if I manually copied it from excel and pasted it into an outlook email). It's a small table and I really do not want to send it as an attachment since its just another step for the user.

I am assuming that the best way to do this is to use Win32::OLE and copy the cells and paste it into the email? I am currently using Mail::Outlook to send the email.

Is this even possible? If it is, could someone point me in the right direction? Thanks in advance.

Paul
