In Outlook, my e-mails are displayed as plain text due to e-mail security gorup policies. I have to activate html view via the menu above the mail content each time when I open the e-mail.

Is there a simple VBA code that automatically changes the view from text to html, when opening the e-mail?

Any help will be highly appreciated.

The MailItem.BodyFormat property returns or sets an OlBodyFormat constant indicating the format of the body text.

'Set body format to HTML  
MailItem.BodyFormat = olFormatHTML

  • Thank you for the information. Unfortunately I don't experience to create the specific function that triggers the format change. The linked example is only for new e-mails. Can you help me with that? – outlookvba Nov 06 '19 at 11:28

I believe we are talking about viewing messages, not creating messages.

What about when MailItem.BodyFormat = olFormatHTML doesn't work?

Our IT sets previews and message views to Plain Text, but allows selecting "We converted this message into plain text" and clicking "Display as HTML".
