Hello,
Using VBA, I set a range in an Excel workbook and then pass it through the following function. The range contains a couple of cells that contains text, along with a table:
This function converts the range to HTML for the purpose of being used as the .HTMLbody of an Outlook email. At its widest, the amount of data in the range is about 50 columns wide. however, even if I set the range as thousands of rows/columns long/wide the eventual email output cuts off the last of my data after about 5 columns.
Weirdly, if I write a bunch of text in cell A1, wrap the text, set the range and pass it through the function, it's outputted fine - I guess because all the text is physically contained in one cell.
Can anyone see if there's something in the function that is tapering the end of the outputted HTML range?
