I have some great code from Ron de Bruin website to copy and paste to the body of an outlook email as HTML. This works fine except for an issue I have with the conditional formatting on the first column.

On the first column there is some conditional formatting that makes the text go red / bold / italics if it meets certain criteria on the last column. (same conditional formatting happens on that last column too).

When I use the code below every goes across correctly exept the formatting on the text (first) column.

I've notice that even though the font is arial on the whole sheet the text changes to Calibri too (on the first column only).

Any Idea's?

Excel Facts

Do you hate GETPIVOTDATA?
Prevent GETPIVOTDATA. Select inside a PivotTable. In the Analyze tab of the ribbon, open the dropown next to Options and turn it off
Update, I forgot to say I'm using Excel 2010 and Outlook 2010.

Also If I manually copy from Excel Then paste to Outlook in the body of the email using Keep Source Formatting.

It works fine?
