Bad ASP code
This is a string:
http://industrialbusinesscentre/QMG/ViewDetails_copy(1).asp?QMGid=
So this will throw an error in your code because it is not a string as
body=<%
http://industrialbusinesscentre/QMG/ViewDetails_copy(1).asp?QMGid=%>
And ASP has no idea what to do with it
The string code needs to be set as a values and delimited
body=<%="
http://industrialbusinesscentre/QMG/ViewDetails_copy(1).asp?QMGid="%>
Better still do as Dave suggests and make it a variable
<%
bodylocation="
http://industrialbusinesscentre/QMG/ViewDetails_copy(1).asp?QMGid=" & FP_FieldURL(fp_rs,"QMGid")
%>
And then use
body=<%=bodylocation%>

| Thanks guys but still not there
|
| The actual string is as follows
|
| mailto:<%=FP_FieldURL(fp_rs,"emailaddress")%>?subject=A QMG request has
| been marked for your
| attention?body=<%
http://industrialbusinesscentre/QMG/ViewDetails_copy(1).asp?QMGid=%><%=FP_FieldURL(fp_rs,"QMGid")%>
|
| You can see that I added the tags before and after the url - The
| results was a runtime error on the page with a type mismatch on the
| 'http'
