<div><div>Hi Susan,<br><br>As Jocelyn mentioned, you need to tweak the SCOT configuration.<br><br>In SCOT, there is an option to perform conversions.<br>SCOT -> Settings -> Conversion Rules<br><br>Check your entries there (I've seen a rule to convert TXT to HTM at a site I was previously at).
<br>Check with your Basis Team (or even a good ABAP'er) and they can help advise which SX_OBJECT_CONVERT_* function module to use.<br><br>Hope that helps.<br><br>Cheers,<br>Tom<br><br> </div><br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">

<br>change my mail settings to send HTML, but it doesn't seem to matter for<br>incoming email. There's nothing I can find to send in to the task which<br>can alter this.<br><br>Sherie, yes, I've tried that. No joy.
<br><br>The email is being generated by SELFITEM SENDTASKDESCRIPTION, and the<br>task description, as you've guessed, is where I am pulling in the URL as<br>an attribute of the Business Object. In SOST, the URL with the HTML tag
<br>looks great, but after it gets sent out (to our non-outlook email<br>client) it's back to plain gobbledy-gook...<br><br>That is why I pulled this old message out of the archives to check with<br>the wizards and wizardesses of workflow.
<br><br>The attached doc shows the description in the editor, in SOST, and then,<br>finally, when it arrives in my email.<br><br>Any help, as always, is appreciated.<br><br>Munday,Sherie J. wrote:<br>> This may be way too simple... But when you enter the URL links in the
