How can I read a file in, make the contents of the file
the body of an email message and then email it?

I want to read an HTML file in and send an HTML formatted
email message.

For reading the file, have a look at the classes in the 'System.IO'
namespace, namely 'StreamReader'.

For mailing the text, have a look at the 'System.Web.Mail' namespace
(this will require a reference to "System.Web.dll").
 
I've been looking at StreamReader and it is the syntax
that I am having trouble with.

Hi Robert,

You only have to read it as one long string.

And therefore is with the streamreader one instruction.

"ReadToEnd"
