how to transfer data from excel into outlook in controled columns

[peter renton]

Hi

i have the following code that send an email (outlook)with various cell data depending on due date

is there a way to make sure the data transfered and shown in the email is spaced out evenly i.e.

all the names , descrition, due date etc will always be rendered in colunms so the email looks right?
at the moment i have tried to space them in the code but if a name is longer in one cell it pushes everthing out and it makes the email look messy and hard to read

if this should be in the excel forum could you let me know and i will move it

cheers peter
