Programatically create formatted / rich text to send in an email

I need  to send formatted text (bullet points, bolded words etc...)  in an email from our app.  I must also fill in some of the information from the database.   Such as names, order details etc..  

The code snippet details how I am sending the email which works.

How can I send this in the body of the email with all the formatting they requested?

Thanks!


 


 

Dim StringCommand As New System.Text.StringBuilder
 
        StringCommand.Append("mailto:")
        StringCommand.Append(Recipient)
        StringCommand.Append("?")
 
        If Subject <> "" Then
            StringCommand.Append("subject=" & Subject & "&")
        End If
 
        If CC <> "" Then
            StringCommand.Append("cc=" & CC & "&")
        End If
 
        If BCC <> "" Then
            StringCommand.Append("bcc=" & BCC & "&")
        End If
 
 
        If Body <> "" Then
            StringCommand.Append("body=" & Body & "&")
        End If
 
   
        System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(StringCommand.ToString)
