On my form is a button that will open the email program. I am using
doCmd.SendObject. In the messagetext part of this command is it possible to
code the message to show on the email as 4 lines? Is it possible to code
the font you want the message to be in or does it just default to what your
email program currently is set up for? The actual message is entered in the
messageText part of the DoCmd.SendObject.

DoCmd.SendObject acSendNoObject, , , Me!EMAIL, , , "subject", "message text
line 1 message text line 2 message text line 3 and message text line 4"

Try:

DoCmd.SendObject acSendNoObject, , , Me!EMAIL, , , "subject", "message
text line 1" & vbNewLine & "message text line 2" & vbNewLine &
"message text line 3" & vbNewLine & "and message text line 4"
 
After I sent this I tried the vbCrLf and that also did the trick.
Any thoughts on the font style and size?
