Thanks for the example. I used it to create an email template showing me all the Opportunity Products associated to an opportunity.

I do have one question. I have a custom field that is HTML, i want to display that HTML in my Visualforce email template, but instead of interpreting the HTML, it actually writes the HTML in the template. Is there a way around it? I can't seem to find the answer.
Thanks,
April

Hey April --

What tag are you using to output the HTML? If you're using "" set the escape attribute to false.

Hope that helps.

Cheers,

Reid

Hi, April -

I'm about to go down the same path of adding Opportunity Product details (so glad we can do this now!)--would you be interested in sharing your code or the basic framework?

Greg,

I'm also interested in getting the code for adding Opportunity product details to the VF template. Were you able to get your hands on the code?

Thanks!

Jorge

I created my first VF Email Template and all was fine in Sandbox. When I deployed it all to Production I get the following error:

Error occurred trying to load the template for preview: Collection size 1,393 exceeds maximum size of 1,000.. Please try editing your markup to correct the problem.

When I use the template it works fine. Should I be concerned?
