Hello! need help please!

I'm having an issue how to add line breaks on on the email message body.

im using a sharepoint list as a data source so some of the information needed to send the email are already pre-loaded like, Email add, CC address, Subject and the body (please refer to image).

Everything is working properly but the body of the message does not have the line breaks when the email is received. The result is one line of sentence on the email. (please see email result image)

even though the body has the line breaks originally from the DataCard Value it doesnt reflect when the email is received.

Here's the function on the "Send Email" Button onSelect property

Office365Outlook.SendEmailV2(To_EmailAdd.Text,'Subject:_DataCardValue'.Text,Body_DataCardValue.Text,{Cc: 'CC:_DataCardValue'.Text})

Please help! im stuck on this for months.

Thank you in Advance!

you could try to use Char(10) or Char(13) depending on the program beign used or even use a hidden HTML box to format the body of the email. If you use the HTML option make sure you also include the optional parameter {IsHtml: true} at the end of the function.
