How do I write the sendobject function to send a report (the contents of a report) in the body of an email and NOT as an attachment?

You will need to assign the data from the report to a variable and then set the variable as the [messagetext] of the SendObject command. I have done this before and found that is rather dificult to do if your report has a lot of formating.
DoCmd.SendObject [objecttype][, objectname][, outputformat][, to][, cc][, bcc][, subject][, messagetext][, editmessage][, templatefile]

Hope this helps point you in the right direction.
